Surfactant evaluation for enhanced oil recovery: Phase behavior and interfacial tension
Surfactant flooding is one of the successful techniques employed in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) to extract the remaining original oil in place after primary and secondary recoveries are performed. Selection of the right EOR surfactant is an important but

The removal of thermally aged films of triacylglycerides by surfactant solutions [PDF]
Thermal ageing of triacylglycerides (TAG) at high temperatures produces films which resist removal using aqueous surfactant solutions. We used a mass loss method to investigate the removal of thermally aged TAG films from hard surfaces using aqueous ...

Effect of Surfactant Additives on Phase Inversion in Oil-Water Pipe Flow System [PDF]
This research investigates the effect of surfactant additives on phase inversion point in the oil-water flow in horizontal pipe. Two types of surfactants were used in the experiments; anionic type (sodium lignosulfonate (SLS)) at 200 ppm and cationic ...

Influence of liquid surface tension (surfactants) on bubble formation at rigid and flexible orifices [PDF]
The influence of liquid surface tension on the bubble formation from both rigid and flexible orifice has been investigated. The liquid phases under test are aqueous solutions with butanol or surfactants (cationic, non-ionic and anionic); static and ...

The influence of natural pulmonary surfactant on the efficacy of siRNA-loaded dextran nanogels [PDF]
Aim: Topical administration of siRNA nanocarriers is a promising approach in the treatment of pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary surfactant, covering the entire alveolar surface of mammalian lungs, will be one of the first interfaces that siRNA nanocarriers ...
