Demulsification 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 کاملStabilisation of water-in-water emulsions by montmorillonite platelets.
The formation of water-in-water emulsions from the aqueous two phase system containing polyethylene oxide and pullulan, stabilised by montmorillonite platelets, was investigated. A novel approach of preparing the emulsions at non-equilibrium polymer concentrations was successfully utilised to control viscosity during mixing and allow the use of low energy emulsification methods. Polyethylene ox...
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 کاملThermodynamic Stability of Water-in-oil Emulsions
It is well known that colloids can show phase transitions similar to the ones observed in molecular systems. Colloid-diluted and colloid-concentrated phases can coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium at certain conditions. In a previous work, the authors of this research have used this concept to study petroleum emulsions stability, applying thermodynamic perturbation theories to calculate a phas...
متن کاملFunctionalized Cellulose Networks for Efficient Oil Removal from Oil–Water Emulsions
The separation of oil from water in emulsions is a great environmental challenge, since oily wastewater is industrially produced. Here, we demonstrate a highly efficient method to separate oil from water in non-stabilized emulsions, using functionalized cellulose fiber networks. This is achieved by the modification of the wetting properties of the fibers, transforming them from oiland water-abs...
