“…This casting speed is much higher than that of the conventional twin roll caster for aluminum alloy (CTRCA), because the casting speed of the CTRCA is usually slower than 5m/min. A vertical type tandem twin roll caster (VTTRC) was invented based on the VHSTRC to cast three layers clad strip [5,6]. In this caster for the clad strip, one vertical type twin roll caster was mounted on the other vertical type twin roll caster.…”

A vertical type tandem twin roll caster equipped with a scraper for the clad strip was invented. This roll caster could cast three layers clad strip which base strip had lower melting point than that of the overlay strips. The base strip was cast by an upper twin roll caster and the overlay strips were cast by a lower twin roll caster. The scrapers were attached to the lower twin roll caster, and were innovated to cast this type of three layers of clad strip. Solidification layers those became the overlay strips were pulled from between the scraper and the roll. The melt of the alloy which was as same as the base strip was poured between the scraper and the base strip. This melt connect the overlay strip and the base strip. The base strip was not re-melted. The scraper enabled that the solidification layer of the overlay strip contact to the melt of the base strip without mixing of the melt of the base and overlay strip. In this way, the sound three layers clad strip which base strip had lower melting point than that of the overlay strip could be cast by the vertical type tandem twin roll caster equipped with a scraper.

Silica/silicate scale is a significant problem, especially in oilfield production during Alkaline Surfactant Polymer (ASP) flooding, where chemical inhibitors are the preferred method to prevent them. In this study, the effect of inhibitor vinyl sulfonated copolymer (VS-Co) on silica/silicate scale formation was analysed using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).The functional group type of VS-Co are sulfonate ions, SO3-, and these interact in the scaling process. Bulk-inhibited scaling brine tests were conducted at 60C and pH 8.5. During these tests, the silicon brine (with VS-Co) representing the inhibited ASP leachate was mixed with a magnesium brine representing the connate water to replicate reservoir conditions during ASP flooding. The samples tested in this study were non-inhibited Si/Mg mixed brine of 60 ppm Mg2+ and 940 ppm Si4+ (60Mg:940Si) as a blank, and inhibited 60Mg:940Si mixture with various VS-Co concentrations of 20 ppm, 50 ppm, and 100 ppm. The inhibition efficiency of the VS-Co was determined, followed by the characterisation study of the silica/silicate scale deposited from both test conditions.The IR spectra of all 60Mg:940Si samples show a similar peak at 1050 cm-1 to 1080 cm-1, attributed to a Si-O covalent bond and a band at 790 cm-1 to 800 cm-1 showing the presence of Si-O-Si stretching. XRD patterns produced a broad scattering peak for all samples at 2 of 24 showing that the samples are amorphous silica. For tests of high Mg2+ in the brine mix, 900Mg:940Si, a mix of crystalline silica and crystalline magnesium silicate was produced. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the scale formed even with 100 ppm of VS-Co present. Further studies are required to address how to mitigate scale formation effectively in the future.Based on the research conducted, we can conclude that the VS-Co alone could not significantly inhibit the formation of silica/silicate scale even at the highest concentration (100 ppm) of VS-Co. However, having VS-Co present caused an alteration in IR spectra frequency which requires further investigation to assess how best to develop the inhibiting properties of the VS-Co product. The application of nanoparticles and their successful stories spark the interest of authors in searching for an efficient method of managing the silica/silicate scale where the modification of potential scale inhibitor (SI) with nanoparticles may be able to improve the inhibition efficiency towards the silicate/silicate scale.The presence of VS-Co in the scaling brine only slightly inhibits the Mg2+ ion (initially comes from connate water) from reacting. It is worth further investigation on how this VS-Co can make it happen. Hence, the functional groups responsible for this may be altered by adding other functional groups to provide a synergistic effect in preventing this silica/silicate scale; or by modifying the VS-Co with nanoparticles to improve their adsorption/desorption capacity.The newly developed technique in analysing the inhibition mechanism of a chemical inhibitor using various spectroscopic analysis is promising where an alteration in the spectra may provide proof of the chemicals inhibition efficiency.
