Asphaltenes are the heaviest components in crude oil. It is generally believed that asphaltenes adsorbed at oil/water interface can form a protective layer to stabilize the water-in-oil emulsions. Therefore, it is of both fundamental and practical importance to understand the adsorption kinetics...

Water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions create many processing problems in petroleum industry. The enhanced stability of droplets and poor separation of emulsions are often associated with the interfacial accumulation of asphaltenes. The complex nature of asphaltenes has complicated the understanding of...

Interfacially Active Magnetic Nanoparticles for Efficient Oil/Water Separation from Oil-in-Water or Water-in-Oil Emulsions
DownloadSpring 2020
The emulsions, either oil-in-water (O/W) or water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions, are inevitably formed during the industrial production processes and the daily household activities. The O/W emulsions such as crude oil-in-water emulsions or oily wastewaters generated from the industrial fields, oil...

Investigating acid-catalyzed biomass reactions and solvent effects in humins formation, using multiscale molecular modeling
DownloadFall 2023
The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to produce chemicals has gained significant interest recently. A broad spectrum of specialty chemicals can be obtained from lignocellulose-derived molecules. One of the most promising reactions in this category is the dehydration of cellulose-derived...
