Foams stabilized by in-situ surface activation of silica micro-particles with surfactant

Concept of applying gas foam in EOR was first proposed for gas mobility control to alleviate the challenges of gas flooding and WAG process due to its high viscosity and low mobility. Like surfactant, colloidal particles can be employed as surface-active agent to stabilize the foams and can provide...
