In this study, experimental investigations were carried out to develop optimum chemical formulations for alkaline-surfactant-alternated-gas/CO2 (ASAG) flooding based on the combined effect of forming strong/stable foam, achieving ultra-low interfacial ...

This work was performed to evaluate the adsorption properties of modified Thai bentonites (MTBs) on hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) by using a popularly capable surfactant (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HDTMA)) compared to an alternative surfactant ...

Phase-field modeling droplet dynamics with soluble surfactants [PDF]
Using lattice Boltzmann approach, a phase-field model is proposed for simulating droplet motion with soluble surfactants. The model can recover the Langmuir and Frumkin adsorption isotherms in equilibrium.

A Structural Comparison of Ordered and Non-Ordered Ion Doped Silicate Bioactive Glasses [PDF]
One of the key benefits of sol-gel-derived glasses is the presence of a mesoporous structure and the resulting increase in surface area. This enhancement in textural properties has a significant e ect on the physicochemical properties of the materials.

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 ...

Surfactant polymer flooding is one of the most common chemical enhanced oil recovery techniques, which improves not only the microscopic displacement of the fluid through the formation of the emulsion but also the volumetric sweep efficiency of the fluid

Enhancing surfactant desorption through low salinity water post-flush during Enhanced Oil Recovery
Low Salinity Water (LSW) incorporates in surfactant Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) as a pre-flush is a common practice aiming to reduce the formation salinity, which affects surfactant adsorption.
