Demulsification of Crude Oil Emulsions via Microwave Assisted Chemicals (Environmental Friendly)

Demulsification is a process of emulsion breaking. It is important in industry application such as waste water treatment, refinery and painting industry. Microwave and chemical heating is the most widely used method of water in oil demulsification. In this research, the combination of microwave and...
