Effect of Salinity, pH, and Temperature on Stability of Gas Condensate in Water Emulsions Using Different Surfactants

Light hydrocarbons in water emulsions are formed in many gas refinery wastewaters, and its stability depends on some parameters such as temperature, pH and salinity. In this study, different surfactants have been used to prepare gas condensates in water emulsion along with four surfactant kinds namely, Span 80, Tween 80, CTAB, SDS and Span 80 and Tween 80 mixture. For this purpose,...

Electrohydrodynamic Coulter Counting

ABSTRACT A new paradigm of Coulter counting is developed using electrohydrodynamic liquid jets in lieu of solid state pores as the sensing aperture. The electrohydrodynamic jet was successfully used to detect micron-sized particles through resistive pulse sensing. Similar to conventional Coulter counting, the relative current change is proportional to the particle-tojet volume ratio. Compared t...

Interaction of multiple atmospheric-pressure micro-plasma jets in small arrays: He/O2 into humid air

Arrays of atmospheric-pressure plasma jets are being considered as a means to increase the area being treated in surface modification and in plasma medicine in particular. A unique challenge of scaling plasma jet arrays is that individual plasma jets in an array tend to interact with each other, which can lead to quenching of some individual jets. To investigate these potential interactions, a ...

Strong x-ray emission from high-temperature plasmas produced by intense irradiation of clusters.

The interaction of an intense laser pulse with large s,100 Åd clusters present in pulsed gas jets is shown to produce novel plasmas with electron temperatures far in excess of that predicted by abovethreshold ionization theory. The enhanced absorption of the laser light by the dense clusters results in the production of high ion charge states via collisional ionization resulting in strong x-ray...
