    • Electrocoalescence of water drop trains in oil under constant and pulsatile electric fields 

      Vivacqua, V.; Mhatre, S.; Ghadiri, M.; Abdullah, A.M.; Hassanpour, A.; ... more authors ( Institution of Chemical Engineers , 2015 , Article)
      This study addresses the effectiveness of constant and pulsed DC fields in promoting coalescence of dispersed water drops in an oil-continuous phase. For this purpose, a train of drops of relatively uniform size is injected ...
    • Electrostatic phase separation: A review 

      Mhatre, S.; Vivacqua, V.; Ghadiri, M.; Abdullah, A.M.; Al-Marri, M.J.; ... more authors ( Institution of Chemical Engineers , 2015 , Article Review)
      The current understanding and developments in the electrostatic phase separation are reviewed. The literature covers predominantly two immiscible and inter-dispersed liquids following the last review on the topic some 15 ...
    • Enhancement Of Water-oil Separation By Electroclescence 

      Vivacqua, Vincenzino; Mhatre, Sameer; Ghadiri, Mojtaba; Abdullah, Aboubakr; Hassanpour, Ali; ... more authors ( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2014 , Conference Paper)
      Dispersed water droplets in organic liquids are commonly encountered in the oil, chemical and biochemical industries. A typical example is the separation of dispersed water drops in crude oil, in order to prevent catalyst ...
