Photo-Induced Demulsification
Demulsification is an aggressive phase-separation phenomenon of stable emulsions. Several studies have examined demulsification by chemical reactions using external stimuli, such as temperature variation, pH variation, and light irradiation. This study focused on the interfacial and emulsification properties of light-responsive surfactants because the use of light as an external stimulus is rel...
متن کاملA microfluidic method to study demulsification kinetics.
We present the results of experiments studying droplet coalescence in a dense layer of emulsion droplets using microfluidic circuits. The microfluidic structure allows direct observation of collisions and coalescence events between oil droplets dispersed in water. The coalescence rate of a flowing hexadecane-in-water emulsion was measured as a function of the droplet velocity and droplet concen...
متن کاملEffect of the Structure of Commercial Poly(ethylene Oxide-b-propylene Oxide) Demulsifier Bases on the Demulsification of Water-in-crude Oil Emulsions: Elucidation of the Demulsification Mechanism
Water-in-crude oil emulsions are formed during petroleum production and asphaltenes play an important role in their stabilization. Demulsifiers are added to destabilize such emulsions,however the demulsification mechanism is not completely known. In this paper, the performances of commercial poly(ethylene oxide-b-propylene oxide) demulsifiers were studied using synthetic water-in-oil emulsions ...
متن کاملDemulsification of crude oil-in-water emulsions by means of fungal spores
The present feature describes for the first time the application of spores from Aspergillus sp. IMPMS7 to break out crude oil-in-water emulsions (O/W). The fungal spores were isolated from marine sediments polluted with petroleum hydrocarbons. The spores exhibited the ability to destabilize different O/W emulsions prepared with medium, heavy or extra-heavy Mexican crude oils with specific gravi...
متن کاملEffect of Collisions on Electrostatic Probe Measurements
An experimental investigation of the length effect as a function of collisions in the sheath of a slightly ionized hypersonic flow regime for cylindrical ion collecting probes is undertaken. The results indicate a strong dependence of the length effec: on the number of collisions in the sheath and also on the degree of ionization of the media. This research was supported by the Advanced Researc...
