Formation of calcium naphthenate in water/oil systems, naphthenic acid chemistry and emulsion stability

In recent years the production of crude oils with high amounts of naphthenic acids has increased. Certain problems are related to this type of crudes and a better understanding of the chemistry of the naphthenic acids is therefore of interest. Synthetic model naphthenic acids, as well as commercial...
