Hydrophobic Meshes for Oil Spill Recovery Devices

Widespread use of petrochemicals often leads to accidental releases in aquatic environments, occasionally with disastrous results. We have developed a hydrophobic and oleophilic mesh that separates oil from water continuously in situ via capillary action, ...

Numerical modeling of the effects of oil on annular laminar film condensation in minichannels

John Richard Thome, Stefano Nebuloni

This paper presents a numerical model to predict laminar film condensation heat transfer in small channels of different internal geometries for miscible refrigerant-oil mixtures. The model includes the contributions of surface tension, axial shear stresses ...

Surface Impurities Are Not Responsible For the Charge on the Oil/Water Interface: A Comment

Sylvie Roke, Rüdiger Scheu, Kailash Chandra Jena

A recent communication by Roger and Cabane[1] on the origin of negative charge on the interface between oil and water states that: "The basic assumption of all previous experimental and theoretical studies has been that these systems have "pristine" oil/wa ...

Composition and fate of gas and oil released to the water column during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill

Jeremy Samuel Arey

Quantitative information regarding the endmember composition of the gas and oil that flowed from the Macondo well during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is essential for determining the oil flow rate, total oil volume released, and trajectories and fates o ...

Vibrational Sum-Frequency Scattering Studies of Oil-in-Water Emulsions

Hilton Barbosa De Aguiar

Oil-in-water emulsions consist of oil droplets dispersed in an aqueous phase. Interfacial properties of the droplets determine the stability of emulsions. Even though this statement is widely accepted, a molecular level picture of the droplet interface is ...

Flow boiling characteristics and flow pattern visualization of refrigerant/lubricant oil mixtures

John Richard Thome

A comprehensive review of flow boiling characteristics and flow pattern visualization of refrigerant/lubricant oil mixtures is presented in this paper. First, various parameters influenced by the lubricant oil in convective boiling of refrigerants, such as ...
