Microfiltration of oil emulsions stabilized by different surfactants by Trinh, Thien An, Han, Qi, Ma, Yunqiao, Chew, Jia Wei

“…Two key understanding on the correlation between the DLVO and XDLVO predictions with flux and fouling were obtained. Firstly, the steep flux enhancement vis-à-vis a DI water feed by the feed containing CTAB-stabilized oil emulsion was tied to the attractive interaction of the surfactant with the membrane, as evident from the DLVO model. …”

Behaviors of floating droplet by Kan, Kah Hou

“…High amplitude oscillation is characterized by a gradual contraction of contact line and followed by a steep and sharp expansion. Closer inspection shows that the expansion of droplet contact line causes the strong expulsion of bulk fluid into the submersed section causing abrupt and unstable flow transition. …”
