With substantial contributions from experienced industrial scientists and engineers, this work will have real application towards improving process efficiency and improvement in the trillion-dollar global petroleum industry. It presents an overview of the emerging field of petroleomics, which endeavors to understand the fundamental components of crude oil. Petroleomics promises to revolutionize petroleum science in much the same way that genomics transformed the study of medicine not long ago. Asphaltenes are a particular focus, with many chapters devoted to the analysis of their structure and properties.
Contains selected invited papers presented at the 10th International Symposium on Surfactants in Solution held in Caracas, Venezuela. The volume covers phase behaviour of monolayers, contact angle hysteresis, micellar relaxation, micellar catalyzed reactions, polymerization in microemulsions, polymer-surfactant complexation, asphaltenes, and more.
Written by top international experts in colloid and surface chemistry. Contains close to 750 literature references and nearly 400 useful figures, equations and tables.
Demonstrating methods for overcoming stability issues in paints, wax dispersions, cosmetics, food products, and other industrial applications, this reference probes theoretical and practical issues surrounding microemulsion science and technology. Featuring the work of 51 international experts and containing almost 1000 instructive tables, equations, and illustrations, this book reviews the performance of, and prospects for, experimental methods such as X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), light scattering, small angle neutron scattering, viscosimetry, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to characterize various aspects of the dispersed phase of microemulsions.
Collects 21 contributions from the August 1997 workshop, divided into sections on: fundamental aspects of ultrasonic and dielectric characterization techniques; measurements in concentrated systems; applications development and industrial process monitoring; applications in inorganic particulate sus
European, North American, Canadian, and South Asian scientists have joined forces to create the only handbook in existence on the chemistry of surface and colloidal systems. Never before has the massive amount of data required by surface research chemists been available in a single volume. With this new handbook, searching through journals for a piece of data becomes obsolete. All the facts and figures you need in the laboratory or in the classroom are at your finger-tips. The data is presented in a unique style and format, providing a guide for future research planning.
