  Characterization and Stability Analysis of Crude Oil-in-Water Emulsions

  By Ajay Mandal, Shashikant Kumar, Chandan Guria

  Abstract: AbstractProduced water in the form of oil-in-water emulsion is the largest waste stream generated during the oil and gas production. Characterizations of oil-in-water emulsion in terms of stability study with respect to oil droplet size distribution, oil content, total dissolved solids, salinity with respect to time and rheological property have been investigated in the present work. Particle size distributions of freshly prepared oil-in-water emulsion of different crude oil concentration and …
