A stabilized emulsified acid composition for deep carbonate formation stimulation is provided. The stabilized acid emulsion composition includes a petroleum operable to provide a barrier between an acid and a reservoir rock, the acid operable to react with the reservoir rock to dissolve the reservoir rock and produce a wormhole, a functional framework operable to stabilize the stabilized acid emulsion, an emulsifier operable to stabilize the stabilized acid emulsion, and a corrosion inhibitor operable to provide protection against corrosion for the metal components of a well. The petroleum can be diesel. The acid can be hydrochloric acid. The functional framework can be selected from the group comprising surface-modified clay-based material, zeolites, hybrid organic-inorganic materials, covalent-organic framework materials, and boron nitride nanotubes, and combinations thereof. The functional framework can be a surface-modified clay material selected from an organoclay. The corrosion inhibitor is a cationic ammonium-based corrosion inhibitor.

Targeting enhanced production through deep carbonate stimulation: stabilized acid emulsions containing insoluble solid materials with desired wetting properties

Amine functional solid sorbents for carbon dioxide capture and sequestration may be prepared from metal oxide foam solid sorbent supports by treating an appropriate metal oxide foam solid sorbent support with an amine material. Desirable are metal oxide foam solid sorbent supports with a foam structure and morphology at least substantially absent hollow sphere, layered sphere, wormlike and amorphous structure and morphology components. The amine materials may be sorbed into the metal oxide foam solid sorbent support, or alternatively chemically bonded, such as but not limited to covalently bonded, to the metal oxide foam solid sorbent support.
