Performance of PHB/PEG blend for polymer flooding in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) application / Norfarisha Achim

Jatropha curcas plant has been known for significant benefits such as for house protection, medicinal uses, biodiesel substitution and many more. The Jatropha oil extracted from Jatropha seeds gained global attention mainly in packaging industries as this oil was used as carbon source for production...
