Processes of salt slag recycling in aluminum production to obtain powder material with a high content of aluminum oxide phases by B. M. Nemenenok, I. V. Rafalski, P. E. Lushchik, L. P. Dolgi, A. D. Rulenkov

“…The processing of salt slags in aluminum production in order to obtain a powder material with a high content of aluminum oxide phases and the results of thermodynamic assessment of the hydrolysis reactions of aluminum carbide and nitride during the hydraulic treatment of slags are discussed. It is reported that water‑soluble fluorine compounds, such as Na3AlF6, CaF2, MgF2, K2ZrF6 , in the composition of refining fluxes complicates the processing of aluminum slags, which involve leaching of salts by water. …”

Justification on Choosing Screw Pumping Units as Energy Efficient Artificial Lift Technology by D. I. Sidorkin, K. S. Kupavykh

“…However, there is a significant share of new deposits with low-permeability reservoirs, which require either a system of reservoir pressure maintenance or periodic hydraulic fracturing. At the same time deposits at the late stages of exploration, apart from the use of pump units, systems of reservoir pressure maintenance and hydraulic fracturing, require regular repair and restoration, measures against salt and heavy oil sediments, mechanical impurities, flooding, etc., which all has a negative effect on well profitability. …”
