The study of the effectiveness of soybean oil and castor oil as flow improvers for waxy petroleum crude oil
Abstract The major problem of crude oil (CRO) transport through pipelines is wax crystallization and deposition. Flow improvers are added to waxy CRO in order to reduce handling cost. Bio-based flow improvers derived from cheap renewable resources are attractive as cost-effective, eco-friendly alter...
