Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen

Mineralogy, Wetting, Permeability, Contact angle and Chemical engineering are his primary areas of study. His Mineralogy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pore size, Drop, Adsorption and Brine. His studies examine the connections between Wetting and genetics, as well as such issues in Plume, with regards to Carbon sequestration.

His research on Permeability also deals with topics like

  • Microstructure and Swelling most often made with reference to Coal,
  • Methane most often made with reference to Coal mining. The concepts of his Contact angle study are interwoven with issues in Capillary action, Surface tension and Mica. His research on Chemical engineering focuses in particular on Nanoparticle.

His most cited work include:

  • Wettability alteration of oil-wet carbonate by silica nanofluid. (176 citations)
  • Receding and advancing (CO2 + brine + quartz) contact angles as a function of pressure, temperature, surface roughness, salt type and salinity (88 citations)
  • Multi-scale x-ray computed tomography analysis of coal microstructure and permeability changes as a function of effective stress (85 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Chemical engineering, Wetting, Mineralogy, Contact angle and Hydrate. His work investigates the relationship between Chemical engineering and topics such as Surface tension that intersect with problems in Drop. His study in Wetting is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil science, Geotechnical engineering, Plume and Calcite.

His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Carbonate and Permeability. His Contact angle research includes elements of Surface roughness, Carbon dioxide, Brine and Mica. His Hydrate research incorporates elements of Inorganic chemistry, Dissociation, Methane and Natural gas.
