A Review of the Emulsification Tendencies and Long-Term Petroleum Trends of Alaska North Slope (ANS) Oils
This paper reviews three topics: the potential for formation and the stability of water-in oil states (emulsions) of Alaska North Slope (ANS) oils, the change in the lightness or heaviness of these oils, and the report prepared by S.L. Ross Environmental Research Ltd. on these first two topics.
A Survey Of Tank Facilities For Testing Oil Spill Dispersants
This report is a survey of tank facilities that could be used for testing oil spill dispersants. The report begins with considerations for tank testing, followed by a list of requirements for tank testing, and data is then provided on a number of potential tanks.
Dispersants, Salinity and Prince William Sound
This paper is a summary of the effects of water salinity on chemical dispersion, especially those effects related to effectiveness.
