CHECK THESE SAMPLES OF Carbonate Rocks-Classification of pores and Seismic Expression
Of the different kinds of organic carbonates, dimethyl carbonate is the simplest one, produced industrially from methanol through catalytic oxycarbonylation (1).... While earlier, organic carbonate synthesis with the help of catalysts required halogen compounds or phosgene, research on the synthesis of organic compounds later on was more inclined towards substituting halogens with other non toxic compounds.... Organic carbonate synthesis has thus seen a new dawn, wherein more emphasis was on green chemistry and use of reagents that are least toxic to the environment and to living organisms....

Essay
As a result of the dynamic nature of the earth, tripled with earth movements and unstable atmospheric conditions that result in destructive and sometimes life threating experiences, need arises for reliable and relevant data about ground conditions to enable assessment and.... ... ... This cushions structures and developments that configure the offshore areas after the development and their surrounding from destructive but predictable natural disasters.

This research paper "The Solvay Process for Sodium carbonate" shows that the Solvey process is an important industrial process that is widely used to produce sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) from Sodium chloride and Carbon dioxide under a complex chain of reactions with Ammonia gas(NH3).... The final important part of the reaction normally involves the decomposition of sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3 through heating at high temperatures (calcination) whereby sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3 precipitates and converts to sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) while both carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are liberated as gases....

The focus of this paper "seismic Hydrocarbon Exploration" is on hydrocarbon exploration, also known as gas or oil exploration refers to the search undertaken by geophysicists and petroleum geologists for deposits of hydrocarbon occurring beneath the surface of the earth including natural gas and oil.... The geophysical methods have been cited by Reynolds (2011) as the most common methods and encompass seismic, gravity and magnetic surveys.... The presence of non-bacterial gases would also be tested to identify the existence of abnormally high-level concentration of gases which would call for further evaluation of seismic data....

This paper "Factors Controlling Elastic Properties in Carbonate Sediments and Rocks" explains that in most cases, researchers use seismic data in mapping the elastic properties, which they derive from the inversion of seismic data through the velocities to form vital inputs for the simulations.... Besides, most researchers currently use seismic inversions, calculation of the pore volumes, and the AVO analysis equations, which are susceptible to large uncertainty forms in the carbonates....
