Abstract: An electrode for electrocoagulation, a method of obtaining it, and an electrocoagulation method using the electrode. Wherein, the electrode allows reducing energy consumption kWh/kg due to the fact that it has a reduced grain size obtained through a heat treatment that gives it the characteristic sought for the reduction in energy consumption.

Abstract: Provided are methods for pretreating a subterranean formation that include introducing into at least a portion of the subterranean formation: a first composition containing an oxidant in an aqueous base; and a second composition containing an acid and a compound that generates a non-oxygen gas upon reaction with the oxidant. Pretreating a subterranean formation according to these methods reduces the fracture toughness of the rock and establishes conditions favoring the growth of dendritic fracture.

Abstract: A nanoporous material made of aggregated polymeric nanoparticles wherein at least 40% of the nanoparticles have a diameter above 50 nm, and a process for producing thereof.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a sucker rod with high resistance to corrosion, to be used preferably in oil wells. Said sucker rod comprises a core of carbon steel, whether alloyed or not, whose surface is coated by a copper base alloy. Said alloy comprises a 50 to 99.9% copper rate. A process for manufacturing said sucker rod is included.

Abstract: A slurry for hydrocarbon production and water injection well cementing, and procedures to cement wells using such slurry are provided. The slurry contains at least cement and water, and at least an amount of fibers in a ratio of 0.1 to 0.8% in weight with respect to cement weight, where the fibers may in general be of polypropylene, polystyrene, carbon, alkali-resistant glass, cellulose or polymers. The slurry may also comprise other additives, such as dispersants, fluid loss agents, accelerators and retarders, chemical extenders and latex, among others. Procedures to cement hydrocarbon production wells or water injection wells are also described, where the cement slurry is prepared incorporating fibers into the slurry separately or mixing them with the remaining dry components before adding water.
