A critical review of the development and demulsification processes applied for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)The formation of stable emulsions is a fundamental problem in oil industry that can result in a sequence of environmental and operational problems. Chemical demulsification is extensively applied for the recovery of oil ... -
Application of Fe3O4 magnetite nanoparticles grafted in silica (SiO2) for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)In this study, an innovative magnetic demulsifier (MD) was prepared by grafting a silica layer onto the surface of the Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) using the modified Stober process. The MD was characterized using ... -
Enhanced oil recovery using hyperbranched polyglycerol polymer-coated silica nanoparticles
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Functionalized Fe3O4?SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles (Fe?Si-MNPs) coated with hyperbranched polyglycerol polymer were prepared and tested for oil recovery from oil in water (O/W) emulsions. The structure, chemistry, and surface ...
