Abstract CO 2 huff-n-puff (CO 2-HnP) process is a promising technique for enhanced heavy
oil recovery. The huff stage of this process involves the formation of foamy oil flow …

Oil/water emulsions are one of the major threats to environment nowadays, occurs at many
stages in the production and treatment of crude oil. The oil recovery process adopted will …

A novel ladle shroud was employed to produce small bubbles to remove inclusions smaller
than 50 μm meanwhile inhibiting the formation of slag eye. Both water modeling and …

In this study, a theoretical evaluation of the effect of inertial forces in particle-bubble
interactions during the flotation process is presented and supported by the experimental …

Micro-bubbles were generated using gas injection through tiny orifices located at the upper
part of the ladle shroud, for deep cleaning the liquid steel. An impact pad was employed to …

Removal of pyrite from coals is very important to reduce the emission of SO 2 during coal
combustion. The selective flotation of pyrite from coal is challenging due to the hydrophobic …

The fundamental flotation models are useful for understanding flotation mechanisms.
However, these models cannot be used for design and optimization of flotation circuits …

The performance of the up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) is significantly governed
by the hydrodynamics of the reactor. Though the influence of hydrodynamics on mass …

Nanobubbles are an important means to enhance the flotation of fine refractory minerals.
Generally, nanobubbles are preferentially adsorbed on mineral surfaces, which increases …

Film downflow from captured liquid without wave formation and its destruction is one of the
most important aspects in the development of separation equipment. Consequently, it is …
