Unfortunately, since crude oil is comprised of thousands of complex components, it is hard to extract a generalized conclusion for the effect of salinities on the interface phenomenon. So, it seems applicable if any investigation performs regarding…
Due to the unique potentials of ionic liquid (ILs) for interfacial tension (IFT) reduction, a large number of studies concentrated on the applications of these chemicals. In this way, the current study compares the IFT of…
Due to their unique properties, nanoparticles have recently attracted lots of attention for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and CO2 geo-sequestration (CGS) applications. The purpose of this research is to offer a better understanding of the role of…
The most promising method to improve chemical oil recovery via wettability alteration is associated with colloidal solution such as nanofluid. However, nanofluids show limitations due to nanoparticle agglomeration which may result into pore blockage…
The alkaline flooding process is a chemical flooding method and one of the major methods in chemical enhanced oil recovery (CEOR) capable of increasing the oil sweep efficiency by activating several mechanisms in the reservoir. The main objective of…
