A multiscale stability study of foams stabilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS), and polyoxyethylene alkylether (AES) was conducted, to investigate the relationship surfactant molecular behavior interfacial monolayer configuration foam film properties. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations using a full-atom model utilized explore microscopic features air/liquid interface layer. Several parameters such as distribution head groups order degree hydrophobic tails...
High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a key analytical technique that used in number of fields. Improving the separation efficiency, stability, and universality HPLC has been continuing analytical-chemistry focus. In chromatographic separation, factors such as composition ratio mobile phase, type stationary dimensions column significantly affect efficiency. addition, temperatures phase are also important for achieving separation. The oven usually to stably control temperature...
The mass transfer between CO2 and crude oil is crucial for CO2-EOR. However, traditional methods are complex time-consuming, leading to slow progress in the study of oil. This employed microfluidic technology generate gas–liquid slug flow rapid investigation process within ∼30 s. A method was developed eliminate pressure drop term, suitable studies systems where liquid phase's high viscosity led a high-pressure drop. systematically investigated effects gas rates, temperature, type...
Biosurfactants exhibit outstanding interfacial properties and unique biological activities that fairly related to their self-assembly in solutions at interfaces. Computational simulations provide structural details of biosurfactant aggregates the molecular level relevant thermodynamic properties, but understanding kinetics remains limited due lower simulation efficiency. In this work, a coarse-grained model has been developed for microbial lipopeptide surfactin, surfactin monolayer...
Abstract Surfactant monolayers at the interface between oil and water has been simulated using dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) technique. With a simple coarse-grained model, how variations in structure of surfactants influence their ability to reduce interfacial tension investigated. The result shows that strong hydrophilic head groups are beneficial make surfactant molecules more stretched ordered, help enhance efficiency interface, it is decrease if hydrophobic chains have similar...
Summary Mixtures of anionic/cationic surfactants have never been used in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) for negatively charged sandstone reservoirs because high adsorption. Recently, novel mixtures that produced low critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) 3.50×10–4 wt%, ultralow interfacial tension (IFT) 10–4 mN/m, solubilization 23, and adsorption 0.27 mg/g sand were developed the laboratory a mature reservoir with characteristics temperature 81°C, water cut 97.8%, factor 53.3%, low-acid 0.021...

Abstract Surfactants are widely used in enhanced oil and gas recovery. usually injected into wells reservoirs that released full upon the addition, effectiveness lasts very short. Slow‐release surfactant is preferred to be effective at an extended period. In this study, was encapsulated crosslinked hybrid hydrogel of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) poly acrylamide‐2‐methyl propane sulfonic acid (PAMPS). The slow‐released high temperatures. Free radical polymerization polymerize crosslink PVA...
Abstract Biosurfactants show synergic effects with synthesized surfactant in reducing hydrophobic/hydrophilic interfacial tension, while the understanding of synergistic mechanism is limited.

Abstract CO 2 ‐in‐water (C/W) foams have attracted much attention given their eco‐friendliness in recent years. However, limited surfactants were able to effectively adsorb at the supercritical –water (C–W) interface considering weak solvent strength of , especially high temperatures.

Through systematical foamability foam...
Abstract Two foaming formulations, an amphoteric surfactant (noted as Fam) and a blend of anionic-cationic-amphoteric surfactants Facam) have been prepared tested at lab in field the presence high content condensate (60 vol% on average). Foam height with Facam are close to those Fam. Although Fam has better foam stability without condensate, half-life (t1/2) decreases by 50% condensate. generated shows oil resistance performance due negative spreading coefficient (S). Liquid unloading...
Surfactants are widely used as foaming agents to remove liquid accumulation in gas wells, enhancing natural production.
