EMBEDDING PD INTO TIN OXIDE DRASTICALLY ENHANCES GAS SENSING

Combustion aerosols can uniquely embed noble metals into semiconducting particles [1]. Monocrystalline SnO2 particles embedded with Pd and/or PdOx were made by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) of appropriate precursors through microexplosions by droplet-to-particle conversion as the crystal size was proportional to the cube root of precursor solution concentration, C. These particles were air-annealed and leached with nitric acid for removal of metallic Pd from their surface. The SnO2 crystal size varied from 11 to 24 nm and was in close agreement with the primary particle size determined by nitrogen adsorption. The embedded fraction of Pd ranged from about 30 to 80% of the nominal Pd content. This was achieved by judiciously varying the C, Pd content and the ratio of precursor solution to dispersion oxygen flowrates during FSP. The response of sensors made by doctor blading films of such particles to 1 ppm of acetone and CO was evaluated at 350 °C and 50% relative humidity. Embedding Pd/PdOx into SnO2 significantly increased the sensor response: 2–6 times over that of pure or conventionally-made Pd-containing SnO2 sensors at low nominal Pd-contents (0.2 mol%). For higher (i.e. 1 mol% Pd), the sensor response was enhanced by up to two orders of magnitude. This is attributed to Pd atoms in the SnO2 lattice near the particle surface and/or Pd/PdOx clusters acting as nanoelectrodes into SnO2 films [2, 3] and altering their transducing properties as shown by high resolution electron microscopy, XPS and baseline resistance measurements of pure and Pd-embedded SnO2 sensing films [4].

SLB is a leading oilfield services company that has provided sub-surface measurement, well-construction and production services to the oil and gas industry worldwide for the last 100 years. A major part of well-construction is drilling the well which, despite being a 100yr old industry, is a process that still experiences significant technical challenges.  These industry challenges continue to be highly relevant as slb extends its, already significant, activity in adjacent energy transition technologies that also require deep drilling, that is geothermal, carbon capture & sequestration and sustainable lithium production.

Here I introduce the company, drilling fluids and the essential parts of a well-construction process. I focus on the ability of drilling fluids to carry rock cuttings to the surface. Within the industry this particle-carriage problem is, in general, modelled using a generalized Newtonian fluid.  Yet there are repeated industry reports comparing fluids where the flow curves are closely similar but where cuttings transport is demonstrably different. To probe this, we combine a Xanthan solution as a proxy for a water-based drilling fluid together with an aqueous Bentonite dispersion that at low concentrations in the Xanthan solution is representative of shale contamination of a water-based drilling fluid. The aqueous Bentonite solution alone has rheological properties similar to those of an oil-based drilling fluid.  The concentrations of each of the two fluids, Xanthan and Bentonite, are chosen so that their generalized Newtonian properties are closely similar. However, their extended rheological properties, in particular normal stress differences, differ markedly.

We examine dense particle motion in a horizontal Couette in the presence of Taylor vortices for each fluid.  We find significant effects dependent on fluid type which, through comparison with our model, we speculatively assign as primarily due to normal forces generated by the background fluid.
