NETL recently built a new solubility experimental setup to measure the solubility of various oilfield minerals at various pressure and pressure conditions. We are seeking new ideas in the high-temperature, high-pressure solubility experimental area using our new facility. The ideas should lead to solving relevant problems that are preventing technological advancements in sustainable energy sources. This is a part-time collaboration, with expected participation of approximately 4 days per month.
