Stability and chemical demulsification of water-in-crude oil emulsion (chemical method)
The formation of water-in-crude oil(W/O)emulsion can be encountered at many stages during drilling,producing, transporting and processing of crude oils. A good understanding of petroleum emulsions is necessary for the intention to control and enhance the processes in all these stages.In this study,b...
