The use of aqueous foams as a carrier fluid for pulp fibers instead of water has re-emerged
in the paper and board industry in recent years. In foam forming, a surfactant is needed to …

There are two parts to the interaction of foam with porous media. How the foam interacts with
the surface and the flow within the substrate, which is the focus of this review. Flow-through …

A comprehensive experimental study is performed to investigate the performance of alkali-
surfactant (AS) assisted foam flooding as a means of tertiary Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) …

Foam flooding in porous media is of increasing interest due to its numerous applications
such as enhanced oil recovery, aquifer remediation, and hydraulic fracturing. However, the …

Two-phase interface fluid, bubble or droplet, has shown broad application potential in oil
and gas field development, contaminated soil remediation, and medical treatment. These …

In geologic, biologic, and engineering porous media, bubbles (or droplets, ganglia) emerge
in the aftermath of flow, phase change, or chemical reactions, where capillary equilibrium of …

Ostwald ripening of trapped bubbles in porous media is relevant to several subsurface (eg,
CO 2 storage) and manufacturing (eg, fuel cells) applications. A fundamental question …

Foam structure evolves with time due to gas diffusion between bubbles (coarsening). In a
bulk foam, coarsening behaviour is well defined, but there is less understanding of …

Foam has been widely used for profile control, water plugging, and gas channeling control
in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Because of absorption, the surfactant concentration in foam …

There has recently been renewed interest in understanding the physics of foam flow in
permeable media. As for Newtonian flows in fractures, the heterogeneity of local apertures in …
