STUDY OF THE PROPERTIES OF PROTIC IONIC LIQUIDS TO BE APPLIED IN THE ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY by G. F. D. Ferreira, C. B. M. Lima, S. Mateddi, L. C. L. Santos, A. K. C. L. Lobato

“…Recently, ionic liquids have been gaining in visibility and it is expected that at CEOR, the Ionic Liquid (IL) will decrease the Interfacial Tension (IFT) between oil and water and increase the viscosity of the injected fluid. The aim of this paper is to study the ionic liquid [2HEA] [Hx] in order to evaluate the influence of its concentration and the salinity on the interfacial tension between oil and a solution of ionic liquid, through the statistical designing of experiments. …”

El giro sacrificial. Reflexiones sobre el eje tupi-mexica by Oscar Calavia Sáez

“…Usually, the first is interpreted as a form of “sacrifice” taking place in a complex State organized around priestly structures; the second is associated with “cannibalism” and a fluid society, in constant becoming. However, the close resemblance between the two scripts allows to focus the comparison on more specific contrasts: between the key points of view (that of the predator in one case, that of the victim in the other); between a debt and an exchange economy; between heterosubstitution and homosubstitution; between a priest who monopolizes the role of the sacrificer and a shaman who never even manages to endorse it. …”
