Combined effects of chemical dispersant and suspended minerals on the dispersion process of spilled oil

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
The dispersion process of spilled oil is an important concern for the effective disposal of oil spills. The dispersed oil concentration and oil droplets size distribution were studied through a wave tank test under the application of chemical dispersant and suspended minerals.

Effect of mechanical and chemical clay removals by hydrocyclone and dispersants on coal flotation

Minerals Engineering, 2010
Fine minerals, mostly clays, are known to have a detrimental effect on coal flotation. This paper focuses on the effect of mechanical and chemical removals of fine minerals by hydrocyclone and dispersants on coal flotation.

Behavior of a chemically dispersed oil in a wetland environment

Water Research, 2001
ABSTRACT An experiment was conducted at a wetland research facility, investigating the behavior of chemically dispersed oil (CDO) using an oil spill dispersant. The research site is located on the San Jacinto River near Houston, Texas. The experimental treatments included oiled control, “high-dose” CDO (1:10 dispersant-to-oil ratio, DOR),

Nanocrystals Assembled by the Chemical Reaction of the Dispersion Solvent

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2020
AbstractThe development of methods to pattern nanocrystals with different sizes and shapes remains a challenge. In this study, we demonstrate a unique class of bottom‐up approaches to assemble nanocrystals into patterns. Our approach for patterning nanocrystals focuses on the utilization and control of the chemical reaction of solvents surrounding ...

Comparative Toxicity of Two Chemical Dispersants and Dispersed Oil in Estuarine Organisms

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2017
Chemical dispersants can be a useful tool to mitigate oil spills. This study examined potential risks to sensitive estuarine species by comparing the toxicity of two dispersants (Corexit® EC9500A and Finasol® OSR 52) individually and in chemically enhanced water-accommodated fractions (CEWAFs) of Louisiana Sweet Crude oil. Acute toxicity thresholds and

Stability of mechanically and chemically dispersed oil: Effect of particle types on oil dispersion

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
Oil spill dispersant (OSD) application is one of the preferred cleanup options to cope with oil spills at sea. OSD, in principle, can enhance biodegradation of oil because of its effectiveness in producing relatively small droplets and dispersing them into the water column.
