Reseña del libro "Petroleum Microbiology: An Introduction to Microbiological Petroleum Engineering (en Inglés)"
Petroleum Microbiology: An Introduction to Microbiological Petroleum Engineering is a comprehensive book written by Ernest Beerstecher Jr. that provides an in-depth understanding of the role of microbiology in the petroleum industry. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the microbial processes that occur in oil reservoirs, the impact of microorganisms on oil recovery, and the use of microorganisms in enhanced oil recovery techniques.The book begins with an introduction to microbiology and petroleum engineering, providing readers with a basic understanding of the two fields. It then delves into the different types of microorganisms that are found in oil reservoirs, including bacteria, fungi, and archaea, and the various roles they play in the petroleum industry.The book also covers the impact of microorganisms on oil recovery, including the production of biosurfactants, which can help to increase oil recovery rates. It also discusses the use of microorganisms in enhanced oil recovery techniques, such as microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR), which involves the injection of microorganisms into oil reservoirs to improve oil recovery rates.Throughout the book, Beerstecher Jr. provides numerous examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts and techniques discussed. The book is written in an easy-to-understand language and is suitable for students, researchers, and professionals in the fields of microbiology and petroleum engineering. Overall, Petroleum Microbiology: An Introduction to Microbiological Petroleum Engineering is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the role of microbiology in the petroleum industry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
