Abstract

With the goal of finding the optimal properties of soaps used for tertiary oil recovery we show which properties control the position and shape of the three-phase regime in ternary mixtures of oil, water, and soap. We determine the conditions for the existence of large and multiple three-phase regimes in the phase prism formed by the Gibbs triangle of compositions and the temperature axis.
