Screening of Factor Influencing Wax Deposition Using Full Factorial Experimental Design

The purpose of this work was to study the rate of wax deposition of Malaysian crude oil using full factorial design. Important parameters affecting wax deposition such as experimental duration, speed of rotation, cold finger temperature, and inhibitor concentration were investigated. The individual...
