Demulsification of stable emulsions from produced water using a phase separator with inclined parallel arc coalescing plates
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)A novel and highly efficient oil-water separator equipped with a series of inclined multiple arc coalescence plates is developed and optimized for the removal of stable oil emulsions from produced water. The synthetic high ... -
Polymeric Surfactants and Emerging Alternatives used in the Demulsification of Produced Water: A Review
( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2018 , Article Review)Stable emulsions are frequently encountered in oil production and cause a series of environmental and operational issues. Chemical demulsification is widely used for the separation of oil from water or removal of water ... -
Purification of emulsified oily polluted waters with modified melamine foams
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Oil and gas industry operations produce tremendous amounts of wastewater (produced water; PW). Tertiary treatment of the PW in the final treatment stage is challenging due to the presence of colloids with sizes < 500 nm ... -
The impact of electric field on the demulsification efficiency in an electro-coalescence process
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)In this study, the influence of the electric field and its determining parameters such as voltage, inter-electrode distance and frequency on the demulsification efficiency of a water-in-oil emulsion was studied. The numerical ...
