Direct from the creators of the Java(t) programming language, the completely revised fourth edition of The Java(t) Programming Language is an indispensable resource for novice and advanced programmers alike. Developers around the world have used previous editions to quickly gain a deep understanding[...]
A guide to understanding emulsion theory, methods and equipment, and practical design of a treating system. It explains methods such as: demulsifiers, temperature, electrostatics and non-traditional methods of modulated or pulsed voltage control, and equipment such as: electrostatic treater (dehydra[...]
Raw natural gas typically contains a substantial amount of water, which can degrade heating value and contribute to the formation of corrosion in piping and other equipment. This book defines the various methods of gas dehydration and discusses the differences between adsorption and absorption.[...]
Although the processing of natural gas is in many respects less complicated than the processing and refining of crude oil, it is equally as necessary before its use by end users. This title provides engineers with the ability to understand and select the most efficient and cost effective method to f[...]
Produced water is mainly salty water trapped in the reservoir rock and brought up along with oil or gas during production. Suitable for those who are involved in the design, operation, maintenance and sizing of produced water treatment systems, this book deals with the technology, management, treatm[...]
With a particular interest in anthropology and the history of medicine, and with ambitions to create a 'Museum of Man', Henry Wellcome (1853 - 1936) built up one of the world's largest but least known museum collections: it has been estimated that in 1930 it was some five times the size of the Louvr[...]
Offers a picture of surface production operations, from the production stage to the process stage with applications to process and production engineers. This book provides coverage of hydrocarbon characteristics, the different kinds of reservoirs, and impurities in crude.[...]
Helps familiarize operators with the knowledge and tools required to understand design flaws and solve everyday operational problems for types of separators. This book covers fundamentals such as - physical properties, phase behaviour and calculations. It also contains topics such as separator const[...]
