Stability of w/o emulsions for MgSO4 and Na2CO3 solutions under dynamic and static conditions

Sepideh Palizdan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of MgSO4 and Na2CO3 solution concentrations on emulsion stability, determining the optimum concentrations for stable w/o emulsions. Results showed that MgSO4 concentration had a greater impact on emulsion stability, with asphaltene exhibiting greater stability in basic solutions.

Study on the mathematical model for predicting settling of water-in-oil emulsion

Yi-Bo Li et al.

Summary: A mathematical model was established to predict the settling process of W/O type emulsion under different conditions, taking into account factors such as oil/water ratio, rotation speed, stirring time, and surfactant concentration. Droplet size was identified as a key factor in the settling of the emulsion system, with larger droplets increasing coalescence probability, viscosity, droplet size, and descent rate. The oil/water ratio, stirring time, and rotation speed significantly influenced the size of emulsion droplets.

Extracted quartz as efficient natural demulsifier for crude oil-water emulsions: Effect of monovalent/divalent salts, pH and modeling study

Ahmad A. Adewunmi et al.

Summary: The study investigated the application of quartz particles as demulsifiers in the petroleum industry, assessing their effectiveness at displacing natural emulsifiers and separating water and crude oil under different salt conditions and temperatures. Quartz showed slightly higher demulsification efficiencies in emulsions containing NaCl salt, and exhibited good tolerance to pH changes, performing better in alkaline conditions. The experimental outcomes were modeled using a machine learning algorithm with significant matches and correlations.

Effect of water content on features of W/O emulsion during water flooding in heavy oil reservoir: Bulk properties and mobility control characteristics

Shishi Pang et al.

Summary: The positive role of water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion in recovering heavy oil during water flooding has been recognized. However, the increase in water content weakens emulsion stability and enlarges droplet size, leading to higher viscosity and shear-thinning behaviors. This enhances mobility control, prolongs control duration, and improves fluid distribution.

An experimental investigation of the viscosity behavior of solutions of nanoparticles, surfactants, and electrolytes

Praveen Kumar Bollineni et al.

Summary: Nanofluids exhibit similar viscosity behavior to electrolytes and have shown potential for enhanced oil recovery in reservoirs. This is due to the complex interactions between nanoparticles and ions in aqueous solutions, leading to wettability alteration and viscosity modification. Understanding these interactions can improve the design optimization for nanofluid injection.
