Aluminum Oxide Industry Developments

A group of scientists from Siberian Federal University and their colleagues from Novosibirsk studied nanoparticles' effect on oil production effectiveness. When added to the water that moves oil from a reservoir, nanoparticles advance the separation of oil drops from mine rock and their washing to the surface. The aim was to progress a liquid with special recovery-improving additives. Before the experiment, the group equipped nano liquids created on distilled water and used silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3) powders as nanoparticles.
