    Abstract: Embodiments include methods (and related systems, devices, and apparatuses) for determining a sorption separation factor for a binary gas mixture by applying a magnetic field to at least a portion of a sorbent (604) disposed in a chamber of a magnetic susceptibility device; directing a first gas stream including a first gas compound into the chamber at a first pressure and temperature to obtain a first magnetic susceptibility measurement; directing a second gas stream including a second gas compound into the chamber at a second pressure and temperature to obtain a second magnetic susceptibility measurement; directing a binary gas mixture including the first gas compound and the second gas compound into the chamber at a third pressure and temperature to obtain a third magnetic susceptibility measurement; and determining a sorption separation factor based on the first, the second, and the third magnetic susceptibility measurements.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for enhancing the performance and efficiency of separation processes. The methods include flowing a fluid through a processing zone defined by an antiferromagnetic portion of a conduit and, as the fluid flows through the processing zone, exposing the fluid to a magnetic field produced by oscillating electromagnetic waves, wherein the direction of the magnetic field is generally counter to the direction in which the fluid is flowing. The systems include magnetic treatment units, separation systems, and the like.

    Abstract: A gas compressing system including a plurality of n compressors (8, 9) connected in parallel. Each compressor (8, 9) has a suction line (2, 3) connected to a common suction manifold (1) a discharge line (10, 11) connected to a common discharge manifold (12) configured to deliver compressed gas to a downstream load. The system also includes a process controller (14) configured to control an average speed of the compressors based upon a discharge pressure (57) in the common discharge manifold (12) or a discharge flow (58) through the common discharge manifold (12). The system further includes an adaptive load sharing optimizing controller (15) configured to determine the speed of each compressor (8, 9) in the plurality of n compressors (8, 9). A method of controlling a gas compressing system is also provided.

    Abstract: Methods of preparing a mineral-coated rock micromodel can include 3D-printing a transparent porous micromodel with photo-curable polymer, seeding a thin layer of mineral nanoparticles in the network of pores inside the micromodel, and subsequently growing a mineral layer on the thin layer of mineral nanoparticles. The thin layer of mineral nanoparticles can be introduced by injecting a suspension containing the mineral nanoparticles through the microporous polymer micromodel, and the mineral layer can be grown in-situ on the thin layer of mineral nanoparticles in the network of pores by injecting an ion-rich solution configured to crystallize from solution in response to contacting the mineral nanoparticles.
