DEVELOPMENT OF DEMULSIFIER FOR MALAYSIAN CRUDE OIL

Crude oil is always produced with water. This causes many problems during oil production, arising from the formation of emulsion. Emulsion is a mixture of liquids with no mutual solubility between them. To overcome this issue, demulsifiers are formulated to break the emulsion. Demulsifier main fu...
