Energy Dissipation Reduction Using Similarly-Charged Polymer-Surfactant Complex

Transporting viscous liquids in pipelines is considered as one of the most energy consuming sectors in the industry due to the turbulent flow mode associated. High molecular weight polymers are effective drag reduction agents for enhancing liquid flow through pipelines, but they typically break apar...

TP Chemical technology Transporting viscous liquids in pipelines is considered as one of the most energy consuming sectors in the industry due to the turbulent flow mode associated. High molecular weight polymers are effective drag reduction agents for enhancing liquid flow through pipelines, but they typically break apart (mechanical degradation) when subjected to high shear forces.
