Possible Use of Biosurfactant Produced by Microbial Consortium from Contaminated Soil for Microbially Enhanced Oil Recovery

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Despite recent efforts to introduce renewable energy sources to the market, the world still relies heavily on crude oil and petroleum-based products. It is estimated that over two-thirds of the crude in an oil reservoir remains untouched.

EVALUATION OF THE PURIFICATION PROCESS IN RHAMNOLIPID BIOSURFACTANT FOR APPLICATION IN MICROBIAL-ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY (MEOR)

Brazilian Journal of Petroleum and Gas, 2019
Biosurfactants are employed in several industrial applications which require a high purity level. However, the downstream purification processes are responsible for a large portion of the expenses incurred by biosurfactant production plants. The high costs associated with these processes turn their application on a large scale a challenge for companies.
