Double emulsion consists of two interfacial layers which can encapsulate both hydrophilic
and lipophilic substances within a single carrier. Besides encapsulation, double emulsion …

Few natural, biocompatible, and inexpensive emulsifiers are available because such
emulsifiers must satisfy severe requirements, be produced synthetically rather than naturally …

Reversible double water in oil in water (W/O/W) emulsions were developed to contain
subsurface hydrocarbon spills during their remediation using surfactant flushing. Double …

Ethanolamine and ultrapure water have negligible electrical conductivity, whereas their
mixtures are electrically conductive. Their electrical conductivity is maximum with≈ 20 …

Pump and treat of hydrocarbons from the subsurface is largely ineffective because capillary
forces impede hydrocarbon mobility. This study uses zein (corn protein) dissolved in water at …

Pore network modeling (PNM) allows for a major reduction in computational cost when
performing pore-scale flow simulations in porous media. Despite the increasing use of such …

Electrokinetic remediation of groundwater pollutants uses electrical fields to draw
contaminants towards electrodes, where they are removed through diverse mechanisms …

Injectable filters permeable to water but impermeable to non-polar solvents were developed
to contain non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPL) in contaminated aquifers, hence protecting …

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of a removable physical barrier on the
air sparging performance using a lab-scale aquifer model was investigated. The barrier was …

Nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPL, eg, hydrocarbons and chlorinated compounds) are
common groundwater pollutants. Electrokinetic remediation of NAPLs uses electric fields to …
