ABSTRACT:
Surfactants present in water/oil/surfactant emulsions can be selectively separated from the emulsions by practicing an ultrafiltration process under specific conditions of pressure and ultrafiltration membrane pore size. It has been discovered that increasing the applied pressure results in an increase in the permeability of the surfactant without a commensurate increase in the permeability of the water or oil.
