Cationic surfactants for demulsification of produced water from alkaline-surfactant-polymer flooding

In this research, demulsification of produced water (which is an oil-in-water emulsion) from alkaline–surfactant–polymer flooding, containing sodium alkyl sulfate, was evaluated using five different surfactants from the classes of nonionic, amphoteric, and cationic. It was observed that only single-...
