Emulsification of Crude Oil–Water Systems Using Biosurfactants

This study presents the emulsification of Ekofisk crude oil using five biosurfactants (rhamnolipid, tannin, saponin, lecithin and aescin), and a synthetic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulphate). Emulsions were produced at 20°C at different surfactant solution concentrations (0.05, 0.5 and 5% mass) and...
