Methods for quantifying nitrogen-containing compounds in subterranean treatment fluids
It can sometimes be difficult to quantify the amount of polymer present in a subterranean treatment fluid, particularly at a job site. Methods for analyzing a treatment fluid for a polymer can comprise: receiving a sample of a treatment fluid comprising a nitrogen-containing polymer; placing the sample of the treatment fluid and an aqueous base in an oilfield retort; heating the sample of the treatment fluid and the aqueous base together in the oilfield retort at least until the nitrogen-containing polymer has been substantially hydrolyzed to one or more volatile nitrogen compounds; distilling the one or more volatile nitrogen compounds from the oilfield retort; and determining a quantity of the nitrogen-containing polymer in the sample of the treatment fluid based upon a quantity of the one or more volatile nitrogen compounds distilled from the oilfield retort. Analyses of other nitrogen-containing compounds may take place similarly.

SYSTEMS & METHODS FOR BASIC GAS RECOVERY, ACID GAS SEPARATION, OR COMBINATION THEREOF
The present invention relates to processes and systems for basic gas, e.g., ammonia, recovery and/or acid-gas separation. In some embodiments, a system for acid gas separation may be integrated with an ammonia abatement cycle employing a high temperature absorber. In some embodiments, a system for acid gas separation may employ a higher temperature absorber due to the lower energy consumption and cost of the integrated ammonia abatement cycle. Advantageously, heat may be recovered from the absorber to power at least a portion of any acid gas desorption in the process. Reverse osmosis or other membranes may be employed.
PROCESS FOR RECOVERING AMMONIA FROM VANADIUM PREPARATION FOR AMMONIUM PREPARATION AND RECYCLING WASTEWATER
The present invention discloses a process for recovering ammonia from vanadium preparation for ammonium preparation and recycling wastewater. A conventional vanadium extraction process is complex, and the most difficult to control and treat are ammonia emissions and wastewater treatment. The present process can directly extract ammonium metavanadate and ammonium polyvanadate from the beginning of mining and smelting, and gather all emitted ammonia to prepare ammonium in the process of preparing high-purity vanadium pentoxide by using the ammonium metavanadate or the ammonium polyvanadate, thereby ensuring zero emission of the exhaust gas, and effectively treat all wastewater generated in the above process by using a polyacid ester folucculation technology, thereby ensuring that the wastewater is not discharged but recycled, and realizing that the purity of all products reaches 99.5-99.99%.
Ammonia synthesis using a catalytic nitrogen-selective membrane
The invention relates to a metallic membrane for nitrogen separation, the method of making the membrane and methods of using the membrane. The invention also relates to a metallic membrane for disassociation of nitrogen and subsequent reaction with hydrogen to produce ammonia at moderate conditions compared to a conventional Haber-Bosch process.
A SYSTEM FOR REMOVING AMMONIA FROM AN AMMONIA-CONTAINING EFFLUENT, AND METHOD FOR THE SAME.
A system for removing ammonia from an ammonia-containing liquid, comprising a heat exchanger, an ammonia stripper and an acid scrubber, wherein the ammonia stripper comprises at least two stripper units, which are in fluid communication with one another through a series connection, forming a fluid flow path from the ammonia-containing liquid inlet through the at least two stripper units to the liquid discharge outlet, and wherein the acid scrubber comprising at least two scrubber units, which are in gas communication with one another and the at least two stripper units through a series connection, forming a gas flow path from the air inlet through the at least two stripper units and scrubber units to the scrubber air outlet which is opposite to the fluid flow path through the striper units.
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING AN AMMONIUM SULFITE AND BISULFITE SOLUTION FROM AMMONIA GAS
A process for producing ammonium sulfite and ammonium bisulfite from an ammonia gas stream. The process involves injected sulfur dioxide into a circulating liquid stream to an optimal pH that captures gaseous ammonia from a gas stream. The captured ammonia reacts with sulfur dioxide and water to form the desired products.
