This study presents the synthesis of petroleum sulfonate (PS) via gas-phase SO3 sulfonation in a rotating packed bed (RPB) and the relationship between the interfacial tension (IFT) at the oil-aqueous interface and the composition of PS. Through the…
In this work, petroleum sulfonate (PS), which can be used for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), was synthesized by sulfonation of distillate oil using gaseous SO3 in a rotating packed bed. The prepared PS was characterized by FT-IR, NMR, negative…
