Fabrication and Characterization of the Egg-White Protein Chitosan Double-Layer Emulsion
Egg-white protein has an abundance of hydrophobic amino acids and could be a potential emulsifier after modification. Here, egg-white protein was modified via ultrasonic and transglutaminase treatments to destroy the globular structure.

Influence of wall materials on the microencapsulation of pequi oil by spray drying
The aim of this study was to assess the influence of the wall materials on the microencapsulation of pequi oil. An emulsion containing pequi oil in the oil phase was microencapsulated by spray drying process at 120 °C using gum Arabic, maltodextrin, or a

Wettability and Oil Recovery by Imbibition and Viscous Displacement from Fractured and Heterogeneous Carbonates: Final Report [PDF]
About one-half of U.S. oil reserves are held in carbonate formations. The remaining oil in carbonate reservoirs is regarded as the major domestic target for improved oil recovery. Carbonate reservoirs are often fractured and have great complexity even at

Investigating the wettability effect on gas hydrate bearing sediments
Natural gas trapped in hydrate deposits is a potentially enormous source of energy which can in principle be extracted from the underground reservoir structures.

IMAGING OF PORE SCALE DISTRIBUTION OF FLUIDS AND WETTABILITY [PDF]
Wettability has a profound effect on reservoir recovery and productivity. It determines the microscopic distribution of fluids in the pore-space which, in turn, determine important global multiphase properties such as capillary pressure, relative ...
