Electrochemical ammonia synthesis via nitrate reduction on Fe single atom catalyst.

TL;DR: In this article, a selective and active nitrate reduction to ammonia on Fe single atom catalysts was reported, with a maximal ammonia Faradaic efficiency of 75% and a yield rate of up to 20,000μg/h−1 mgcat.−1 (0.46mol/m cm−2).
Journal ArticleDOI

A support vector machine algorithm to classify lithofacies and model permeability in heterogeneous reservoirs

TL;DR: Nonlinear SVM technique is applied in a highly heterogeneous sandstone reservoir to classify electrofacies and predict permeability distributions and statistical error analysis shows that the SVM method yields comparable or superior classification of the lithology and estimates of the permeability than the neural network methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Origin, Prediction and Impact of Oil Viscosity Heterogeneity on the Production Characteristics of Tar Sand and Heavy Oil Reservoirs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe and illustrate quantitative geological controls on fluid property variations and show how petroleum geochemistry can be used to rapidly produce high resolution fluid property images of tar sand and heavy oil reservoirs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass Transfer Limitations in Embryoid Bodies during Human Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation

TL;DR: A transient mass diffusion model of a single hESC EB suggests that diffusive mass transfer influences the differentiation of hESCs within EBs by controlling the spatial distribution of soluble factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy efficiency and emissions intensity of SAGD

TL;DR: In this paper, thermal efficiencies, energy balances, and emissions of steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) are discussed for bitumen extraction from Athabasca oil sands reservoirs.
