In stacked reservoirs, such as those found in deltaic series, it is common to find that some zones are not drained effectively. Through-casing logs such as thermal neutron and gamma ray spectroscopy devices can be run to investigate whether any layers with original oil saturations remain. Such zones can be perforated to increase oil production at the expense of wetter wells. 

A variation to the top-feed dmm filter is the dual dmm filter which uses two dmms of the same size in contact with each other and rotating in opposite directions. The feed enters into the V-shaped space formed on top of the two dmms and the cake that starts forming initially contains coarser particles due to the settling which takes place in the feed zone. This is beneficial to the clarity of the filtrate because the coarser particles act as a precoat. Erom the point of view, however, of the final moisture content of the cake the stratification of the soHds in the cake may lead to somewhat wetter cakes. Utilization of the area of the dmms is poor since there are dead spaces under the two dmms. The primary appHcation of the dual dmm filters is in dewatering coarse mineral or coal suspensions at feed concentrations greater than 200 kg/m. ... 

The main deposits of freshwater diatomite were laid down in large lakes. Many of these deposits in the western United States formed during glacial times, when the local climate was wetter. Several tens of square kilometers in Nevada west of Tonopah are covered with diatomite as are other large areas in the Great Basin.

In conventional spraying paint is forced under pressure to the spray gun, where it mixes with air and, forced through a small orifice, atomises. Airless spray is created by forcing paint at extremely high pressures through an accurately designed small hole. Rapid expansion as it leaves the gun produces an extremely fine and very even spray pattern. No air is mixed with the paint before it leaves the gun, so avoiding dry spray . A wetter, heavier... 

K chlorate and aromatic hydrocarbons (such as naphthalene), and not more than 12% nitro-hydrocarbons (but no trinitro compds), the remainder consisting of paraffins, fatty oils, flour or other combustibles. It might also contain not more than 4% blasting gelatin. The prefixes Gesteins- and Wetter- were applied if the expls were intended for rock or coal mine use Ref Marshall, Diet (1920), 65...

Some ice creams contain sodium citrate to decrease the tendency of fat globules to coalesce, and to decrease protein aggregation. This results in a wetter ice cream. The citrates and phosphates are both used for this effect. Calcium and magnesium salts have the opposite effect, making a dryer ice cream. 

Ammonium lauryl sulfate is an anionic surfactant. This means it lowers the surface tension of water, making the water spread more easily. Surfactants are also called wetting agents—in plain terms, they make water wetter.
