Application of Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> magnetite nanoparticles grafted in silica (SiO<sub>2</sub>) for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions
Published 2021“…The MD was characterized using various analytical techniques (XRD, FTIR, TGA, TEM, VSM, etc.) and employed to recover oil from O/W emulsion, which were then regenerated and recycled several times. The effects of magnetic demulsifier dosage (MD<sub>dose</sub>), the concentration of oil (C<sub>oil</sub>), pH, the concentration of the surfactant (C<sub>sur</sub>), and separation time (t<sub>sep</sub>) on the demulsification efficiency (%<sub>hdem</sub>), and the percentage of oil recovered (%R<sub>oil</sub>) were evaluated. …”
