Dynamics of water separation in destruction of water-in-oil emulsions

The dynamics of drop formation and settling processes in breaking water-in-oil emulsions of the West Siberian oil fields was experimentally studied. The investigation results of drop formation in the water-in-oil emulsions were presented. The residual water content in oil was determined after the se...

Description
Summary:The dynamics of drop formation and settling processes in breaking water-in-oil emulsions of the West Siberian oil fields was experimentally studied. The investigation results of drop formation in the water-in-oil emulsions were presented. The residual water content in oil was determined after the settling process at the varied initial water content, temperature, and hydrodynamic conditions of emulsion formation.
