Robust Superwetting Sintered Glass Filters for High-Pressure Separation of Emulsions with Enhanced Flux and High-Viscosity-Oil Tolerance

Key Points

• This research aims to develop effective filters for high-pressure separation of emulsions, particularly focusing on handling high-viscosity oils.
• Evaluated sintered glass filters under high-pressure conditions.
• Assessed the performance of filters in separating emulsions.
• Measured flux and viscosity tolerance of the filters.
• Filters exhibited significantly higher flux rates compared to standard materials.
• Demonstrated effective separation of high-viscosity oils with minimal pressure loss.
