Bio-polymers for Improving Liquid Flow in Pipelines - A Review and Future Work Opportunities

Several decades following Tom's discoveries on polymeric drag reducing agents (DRA) continue to see research efforts to produce robust and shear-stable DRA. Most efforts revolve around established artificial polymers, but questions have been raised recently about their environmental impact and...
