CRUDE OIL-IN-WATER EMULSIFICATION USING SOLID PARTICLE FOR PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION
Crude oil can show high viscosity due to the presence of W/O (water-in-oil) emulsion structure and/or the presence of a high concentration of asphaltenes (as in heavy oil), causing difficulties during pipeline transport. The production of O/W emulsion by solid particles is an alternative to decrease...
