• Droplet Crystallization in Water-in-Crude Oil Emulsions: Influence of Salinity and Droplet Size 

      Kolotova, D.; Brichka, K.; Rodionova, Galina; Simon, Sebastien Charles; Derkach, S.; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar; Sjøblom, Johan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Ice crystallization in confined spherical geometries is investigated experimentally at ambient pressure conditions. Water-in-crude (w/o) oil emulsions are formed by homogenization of an acidic North Sea crude oil with water ...
    • Kinetics of Crystallization of Aqueous Droplets in Water-in-Crude Oil Emulsions at Low Temperatures 

      Derkash, S. R.; Kolotova, D.; Rodionova, Galina; Simon, Sebastien Charles; Sjøblom, Johan; Andrianov, A. V.; Malkin, A.Ya. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This study focused on the examination of the isothermal crystallization of aqueous droplets in water-in-crude oil emulsions with water concentrations in the range of 5 to 20 wt %. Experiments were carried out using ...
