New perspectives on supercritical methane adsorption in shales and associated thermodynamics (2019)
Journal Article
Tang, X., Ripepi, N., Rigby, S., Mokaya, R., & Gilliland, E. (2019). New perspectives on supercritical methane adsorption in shales and associated thermodynamics. Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, 78, 186-197. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jiec.2019.06.015

Understanding methane adsorption behavior in shales is fundamental for optimizing shale gas development as the adsorbed methane is a large portion of the subsurface shale gas resource. However, the adsorption mechanism of supercritical methane in sha... Read More about New perspectives on supercritical methane adsorption in shales and associated thermodynamics.

Determination of pore network accessibility in hierarchical porous solids (2017)
Journal Article
Rigby, S. P., Hasan, M., Stevens, L., Williams, H. E., & Fletcher, R. S. (2017). Determination of pore network accessibility in hierarchical porous solids. Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 56(50), 14822-14831. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.iecr.7b04659

This paper validates the hypothesis that the supposedly non-specific adsorbates nitrogen and argon wet heavy metals differently, and shows how this unexpected effect can be actively utilised to deliver information on pore inter-connectivity. To explo... Read More about Determination of pore network accessibility in hierarchical porous solids.
