Hydrocarbon Adsorption Characteristics and Absolute Adsorption Estimation in Shale Nanoporous Media from Statistical Thermodynamics Approaches
DownloadFall 2021
Shale gas has become a very important unconventional energy resource and significantly increased the global energy supply. Due to the presence of large amount of specific surface area and nanopores in shale rock, the phenomenon of gas molecules accumulation on the solid surface is the so-called...
