Combination of electric field and medium coalescence for enhanced demulsification of oil-in-water emulsion

Currently, the green and efficient demulsification of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion is a challenging problem in the treatment of oily wastewater. This work describes a nonchemical method for recovering oil from emulsions. A novel attempt to enhance the demulsification of O/W emulsions using the combin...
