This review is addressed to the phase inversion process, which is not only a common, low-
energy route to make stable emulsions for a variety of industrial products spanning from food …

Emulsion inversion is a complex phenomenon, often perceived as an instability that is
essentially uncontrollable, although many industrial processes make use of it. A research …

The main objective of this work is to investigate the effect of a set of crude oil emulsion
variables, including pH and salt and water contents, upon the microwave demulsification …

This study investigates the effects of asphaltene, resin and petroleum acid on the phase
inversion, stability and oil–water interface characteristics of emulsions. First, different ratios …

Phase inversion in oil–water flow systems corresponds to the transitional boundary between
oil-in-water dispersion and water-in-oil dispersion. In this study, the criterion of minimum of …

Since the emergence of Nanotechnology in the past decades, the development and design
of organic and bioorganic nanomaterials has become an important field of research. Such …

Emulsions are multiphasic fluid systems in which liquid droplets are dispersed in another
immiscible liquid. The main components of an emulsion are the two liquid phases, typically …

The simultaneous flow of oil and water in pipelines is a common occurrence in the
petroleum industry. Water fractions in the output stream increase materially during the …

Methane hydrate formation and dissociation studies from high water content (> 60vol%
water)–crude oil emulsions were performed. The hydrate and emulsion system was …

Formulation is an ancient concept, although the word has been used only recently. The first
formulations made our civilization advance by inventing bronze, steel, and gunpowder; then …
