Upstream Operations in the Oil Industry: Rigorous Modeling of an Electrostatic Coalescer
This paper deals with a first-principle mathematical model that describes the electrostatic coalescer units devoted to the separation of water from oil in water-in-oil emulsions, which are typical of the upstream operations in oil fields. The main phenomena governing the behavior of the electrostati...
