Destabilization and treatment of produced water-oil emulsions using anionic polyacrylamide with electrolyate of aluminum sulphate and ferrous sulphate
( Society of Petroleum Engineers , 2016 , Conference Paper)Surfactant and polymer flooding technology can greatly enhance the oil recovery through the expansion of sweeping and displacing efficiency. The recovered oil from surfactant and polymer flooding emulsifies the residual ... -
Enhancing oil removal from water using ferric oxide nanoparticles doped carbon nanotubes adsorbents
( Elsevier B.V. , 2016 , Article)Oil contaminated water is one of the challenges in water resources management. It is crucial to remove the oil droplets from water in order to meet the discharge regulations set by the environmental authorities. Carbon ... -
Materials and technologies for the tertiary treatment of produced water contaminated by oil impurities through nonfibrous deep-bed media: A review
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Article)This review covers various aspects of the treatment of emulsified oil/water mixtures and is particularly focused on tertiary treatment, which means the reduction of the oil content from 70-100 ppm to below 10 ppm, depending ... -
Some theoretical aspects of tertiary treatment of water/oil emulsions by adsorption and coalescence mechanisms: A review
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article Review)The massive increase in the volumes of oily contaminated produced waters associated with various industrial sectors has initiated considerable technological and scientific efforts related to the development of new cleaning ... -
Synthesis and properties of polyelectrolyte multilayered microcapsules reinforced smart coatings
( Springer New York LLC , 2019 , Article)The present research work focuses on the synthesis, characterization and properties of novel polyelectrolyte multilayered microcapsules used as smart additives in organic coatings for corrosion protection of steel parts. ... -
The separation of emulsified water/oil mixtures through adsorption on plasma-treated polyethylene powder
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)This paper addresses the preparation and characterization of efficient adsorbents for tertiary treatment (oil content below 100 ppm) of oil/water emulsions. Powdered low-density polyethylene (LDPE) was modified by ...
