The oil and gas industry has been a constant developing industry as it is of importance to the
maintenance of industrial civilization in its current configuration and play vital roles in many …

This work investigates the separation of emulsified crude oil in saline water (30 g L− 1 NaCl)
with microbubbles (MBs, D 32= 30–40 µm) and nanobubbles (NBs, D 32= 150–350 nm) …

Oil-contaminated water caused by either oil spill disasters or industrial disposal has posed a
global risk to environmental sustainability and human health. To address the ever-growing …

The graphene/polyurethane (GN@ PU) sponge was prepared via simple dip-coating PU
sponges in graphene aqueous suspension containing cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs) …

Membrane‐based materials with special surface wettability have been applied widely for the
treatment of increasing industrial oily waste water, as well as frequent oil spill accidents …

Produced water originates from crude oil production. It is a mixture of organic and inorganic
compounds, and its composition is highly oilfield-dependent. The present study was carried …

Oily wastewater needs to be effectively treated to minimize the hazardousness to the
environment. Flotation is an excellent pre-treatment technology for low-content oily …

The flocculation–column flotation with hydraulic loading (HL,> 10 mh− 1) was studied for the
treatment of oil-in-water emulsions containing 70–400 mg L− 1 (turbidity= 70–226 NTU) of …

A polyethylene-co-polyvinyl alcohol (EVOH) nanofiber membrane was prepared by the melt
blending extrusion and high-speed airflow deposition process. Then nano cellulose …

Forward osmosis (FO), which is an emerging osmotic driving membrane separation process,
can be directly used in high-salinity oil-bearing (HSOB) wastewater treatment. In this study …
