โœฆ Synopsis


Nocardia c~arae has been shown to be a potent biological de-emulsifier of model oil-in-water emulsions and petroleum water-in-oil field emulsions. N. amarae is reported here to de-emulsify petroleum oil-in-water field emulsions. Parameters affecting the growth and the de-emulsifying ability of this bacterium have been examined. Bacteria-induced de-emulsifying activity could be useful in clarifying tailings ponds and sludges.
