Effects of different gases on the performance of foams stabilized by Cocamidopropyl betaine surfactant and silica nanoparticles: A comparative experimental study

Application of CO2 gas in foam enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes has emerged as a win-win strategy for achieving higher oil recovery factor and reducing greenhouse gas emission, which can significantly help the protection of the ozone layer from depletion. However, lower stability of CO2-foam, a...
