Geochemical evaluation and hydrocarbon generation potential of the Upper Cretaceous–Pliocene succession, offshore Nile Delta, Egypt (2023)
Journal Article
Farouk, S., Khairy, A., Shehata, A. M., Uguna, C. N., El Sheennawy, T., Salama, A., …Meredith, W. (2023). Geochemical evaluation and hydrocarbon generation potential of the Upper Cretaceous–Pliocene succession, offshore Nile Delta, Egypt. Journal of African Earth Sciences, 205, Article 105004. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jafrearsci.2023.105004

The offshore Nile Delta is a prominent petroleum province; nevertheless, previous research focused mainly on evaluation of Miocene–Pliocene possible source rocks because of lack of data. The current study is the first to evaluate organic geochemical...

Geochemical assessment and hydrocarbon potential of Oligocene–Pliocene source rocks from northeast onshore Nile Delta, Egypt (2023)
Journal Article
Khairy, A., El Diasty, W. S., Uguna, C. N., Peters, K. E., Vane, C. H., Snape, C. E., & Meredith, W. (2023). Geochemical assessment and hydrocarbon potential of Oligocene–Pliocene source rocks from northeast onshore Nile Delta, Egypt. International Journal of Coal Geology, 274, Article 104283. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coal.2023.104283

Recent exploration in the Nile Delta Basin has led to major oil and gas discoveries; however, source–reservoir relationships in the onshore part of the basin are still ambiguous. This work involves a comprehensive geochemical assessment of possible O...

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) derived microporous carbons prepared via hydrothermal dechlorination and potassium hydroxide activation for efficient CO2 capture (2023)
Journal Article
Yang, F., Liu, X., Li, M., Uguna, C., Wang, W., & Sun, C. (2023). Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) derived microporous carbons prepared via hydrothermal dechlorination and potassium hydroxide activation for efficient CO2 capture. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 180, Article 113279. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2023.113279

Hydrothermal dechlorination has been widely studied for recycling end-of-life polyvinyl chloride while the impact of embedded metal additives, a major component of many waste PVC products, has rarely been reported. In this study, hydrothermal treatme...
