Surfactants : Fundamentals and Applications in the Petroleum Industry
Editorial Reviews
Review
'This may be considered as not only one of the best books on the subject but as the first surfactant book focusing on the applications of surfactants in the petroleum industry. The subject has been dealt with such absolute thoroughness that any one from amongst the target audience would like to possess the book. In short the book would be of significance to any aspiring surfactant technologist or newcomer to the petroleum industry wishing for a very applications-oriented treatment of the subject. The entire volume is so laudable as a whole that no criticisms are evident.' Current Engineering Practice
Book Description
Here is a comprehensive introduction to the highly practical and diverse applications of surfactants within the petroleum industry, detailing their nature, occurrence, physical properties, propagation, and uses. The focus is on the knowledge and practices needed to successfully deal with surfactants in the petroleum production process: in reservoirs, in oil and gas wells, in surface processing operations, and in environmental, health and safety applications. Throughout, important applications of colloid and interface science principles are emphasized and real-world processes and problems are clearly illustrated. The book also includes a comprehensive glossary.
