Aqueous foams stabilized with silica nanoparticle and alpha olefin sulfonates surfactant

Carbon dioxide (CO2) foams have been introduced to improve mobility of CO2 in CO2 flooding. However, using surfactant alone to stabilize CO2 foam has potential weaknesses such as high surfactant retention in porous media and the foam is thermodynamically unstable for a long-term. Nanoparticle has be...
