Sand failure: effect of biocide on the geomechanical properties of outcrop carbonate rock under static condition. (2020)
Journal Article
WUYEP, E., OLUYEMI, G., YATES, K. and AKISANYA, A.R. 2020. Sand failure: effect of biocide on the geomechanical properties of outcrop carbonate rock under static condition. Arabian journal of geosciences [online], 13(23), article ID 1239. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s12517-020-06176-y

The effects of chemical interaction of a biocide with formation rocks on the rock geomechanical properties are examined. A combination of analytical tests (Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Analysis, X-Ray Powder Diffraction and Pa...

Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites. (2020)
Journal Article
SIDDIQUE, S., YATES, K., MATTHEWS, K., CSETENYI, L.J. and NJUGUNA, J. 2020. Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites. Waste management and research [online], 38(12), pages 1331-1344. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/0734242X20941076

Oil-based mud (OBM) waste from the oil and gas exploration industry can be valorised to tailor-made reclaimed clay-reinforced low-density polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites. This study aims to fill the information gap in the literature and to provide... Read More about Oil-based mud waste reclamation and utilisation in low-density polyethylene composites..
