In principle, the combination of membranes for bulk removal of the carbon dioxide with amine units as polishing systems offers a low-cost alternative to all-amine plants for many streams. However, this approach has not been generally used because the savings in capital cost are largely offset by the increased complexity of the plant, which now contains two separation processes. The one exception has been in carbon dioxide flood enhanced oil-recovery projects [49,54], in which carbon dioxide is injected into an oil formation to lower the viscosity of the oil. Water, oil and gas are removed from the formation the carbon dioxide is separated from the gas produced and reinjected. In these projects,... [Pg.341]

This chapter reports adsorption data for a number of surfactants suitable for mobility control foams in gas-flooding enhanced oil recovery. Surfactants suitable for foam-flooding in reservoirs containing high salinity and hardness brines are identified. The results of adsorption measurements performed with these surfactants are presented surfactant adsorption mechanisms are reviewed and the dependence of surfactant adsorption on temperature, brine salinity and hardness, surfactant type, rock type, wettability and the presence of an oil phase is discussed. The importance of surfactant adsorption to foam propagation in porous media is pointed out, and methods of minimizing surfactant adsorption are discussed. [Pg.261]

Foam Flooding (Enhanced Oil Recovery) The process in which a foam is made to flow through an underground reservoir. The foam, which may either be generated on the surface and injected or generated in situ, is used to increase the drive fluid viscosity and improve its sweep efficiency. [Pg.497]
