چکیده مقاله :
این مطالعه به بررسی پتانسیل سورفکتانت‌های طبیعی استخراج‌شده از علف‌مرغ (Stellaria media) در ترکیب با نانو TiO₂ برای ازدیاد برداشت نفت (EOR) در مخازن کربناته می‌پردازد. افزودن نانو TiO₂ باعث بهبود بیشتر پایداری، کاهش کشش بین‌سطحی (IFT) و تغییر ترشوندگی شد که ناشی از اثرات هم‌افزایی میان نانوذرات، مولکول‌های سورفکتانت و کاتیون‌های دوظرفیتی است. مطالعات کف‌زایی نشان دادند که این ترکیب رفتار کف‌زایی قوی و پایدار دارد که نشان‌دهنده پتانسیل بیشتر آن در کنترل تحرک‌پذیری است. آزمایش‌های سیلاب‌زنی مغزه تأیید کردند که تزریق ثالثیه سورفکتانت علف‌مرغ حدود ۱۴٪ از نفت اولیه درجای (OOIP) را افزایش داد، در حالی که محلول ترکیبی سورفکتانت–نانوذره حدود ۲۰٪ OOIP را محقق ساخت و عملکرد بهتری نسبت به سیلاب‌زنی صرفاً با سورفکتانت داشت. این نتایج نشان می‌دهد که سورفکتانت‌های مشتق‌شده از علف‌مرغ، به‌ویژه در ترکیب با نانوذرات، یک جایگزین دوستدار محیط‌زیست و کارآمد برای مواد شیمیایی سنتزی در کاربردهای ازدیاد برداشت نفت در مخازن کربناته چالش‌برانگیز محسوب می‌شوند.
This study investigates the potential of chickweed (Stellaria media)–derived natural surfactants, combined with Nano-TiO₂, for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in carbonate reservoirs. The addition of Nano-TiO₂ further improved stability, IFT reduction, and wettability alteration, benefiting from synergistic interactions between nanoparticles, surfactant molecules, and divalent cations. Foamability studies revealed strong and persistent foaming behavior, indicating additional potential for mobility control. Core flooding experiments confirmed that tertiary injection of chickweed surfactant increased recovery by ~14% OOIP, while the hybrid surfactant–nanoparticle solution achieved ~20% OOIP, outperforming surfactant-only flooding. These results demonstrate that chickweed-derived surfactants, especially in combination with nanoparticles, provide an eco-friendly and effective alternative to synthetic chemicals for EOR applications in challenging carbonate reservoirs.
