The processing of crude oil often requires the extraction of a large amount of water.
Frequently, crude oil is mixed with water to form water-in-crude oil emulsions as the result of …

This work presents a comprehensive review of electrokinetics pertaining to non-Newtonian
fluids. The topic covers a broad range of non-Newtonian effects in electrokinetics, including …

Nanotechnology is widely recognized for having important applications in many industries,
one of which is oil and gas. Both environmental and cost benefits can be achieved when …

The combined electro-osmotic and pressure-driven flows (PDFs) have pronounced impacts
on the solute transport in permeable porous media, particularly mixing and separation …

Fouling is the accumulation of unwanted material on solid surfaces. The fouling materials
can consist of either living organisms or non-living substances. Therefore, analysis of mass …

Consideration is given to shear‐rate‐dependent rheology effects on mass transport in a
heterogeneous microreactor of rectangular cross section, utilizing both numerical and …

Motivated by emerging applications in bio-microfluidic devices, the present study rigorously
examines the generalized Taylor–Gill hydrodynamic dispersion of a point source solute …

We outline a comprehensive numerical procedure for modeling of species transport and
surface reaction kinetics in electrokinetically actuated microfluidic devices of rectangular …

A reduced-order model for the advective-dispersive mass transfer due to a variety of flow
velocity profiles in a porous-walled microfluidic channel is developed in this study. The fluid …

We study the hydrodynamic dispersion (HD) by electroosmotic flow in soft microchannels.
Considering a fully developed flow in a slit microchannel of low surface potential and …
