Article Abstract

Inhibitors have evolved from their primary function of controlling swelling during hydraulic fracturing processes in shale reservoirs. This study provides a comprehensive review of recent deep eutectic solvent (DES) advancements as inhibitors in swelling inhibition techniques. The swelling inhibitory potentials and mechanisms of DESs have been studied analytically and compared to existing conventional inhibitors. The functional effects of concentration, temperature, and types of DES are explored. Data on the effect of DES on rheology, swelling, zeta potential, shale cutting recovery, surface tension, particle size distribution, XRD, and FTIR analyses are presented. Along with preparation procedures, environmental concerns and applications of DESs in several fields are discussed. This study suggests that DESs are preferable swelling inhibitors due to their inhibitory performance, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness. Moreover, this review includes guidelines and recommendations for selecting and designing DES to inhibit swelling more effectively.

This study aims to explore the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment as a method very likely to result in reversible electroporation of Georgi underground organs, resulting in increased mass transfer and secondary metabolites leakage. PEF treatment with previously established empirically tailored parameters [E = 0.3 kV/cm (U = 3 kV, d = 10 cm), t = 50 µs, N = 33 f = 1 Hz] was applied 1-3 times to roots submerged in four different Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES) media (1-choline chloride/xylose (1:2) + 30% water, 2-choline chloride/glucose (1:2) + 30% water, 3-choline chloride/ethylene glycol (1:2), and 4-tap water (EC = 0.

Distinguishing the botanic origins of monofloral honey is the foremost concern in ensuring its authentication. In this work, an innovative, green, and comprehensive approach was developed to distinguish the botanic origins of four types of rare honey, and the strategy involved in the following aspects: Based on theoretical design, suitable natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) was screened to extract flavonoids from honey samples; after NADES extracts were directly analyzed by high-resolution mass spectrometry, the discrimination models of monofloral honey were established by untargeted metabolomics combined with machine learning. Based on the comparison of various models, the Random Forest algorithm had higher prediction accuracy for four types of monofloral honey, and characteristic compounds for each rare monofloral honey were screened based on SHapley Additive exPlanations values.
