Molecular Dynamics-Based Simulation on Chemical Flooding Produced Emulsion Formation and Stabilization: A Critical Review
Abstract Oil–water emulsions are commonly encountered at various stages of petroleum production. For example, the alkaline–surfactant–polymer flooding is extensively used to promote emulsion formation and thus enhance oil recovery. However, the chemicals (e.g., polymers and surfactants) involved in...
