| Within the scope of producing clean fossil fuels by simultaneously tackling greenhouse gas emissions, the interfacial tension of partially miscible phases containing CO~2~ is being investigated with the pendant drop method. Emphasis is given to measurements at elevated pressures and temperatures, analogous to reservoir conditions. A high pressure apparatus consisting of a view cell and high pressure capillary fittings is used for creating pendent drops at the desired conditions. A computer aided Drop Shape Analysis system is used for capturing images of such drops, which are then analysed for the interfacial tension calculation of the two phases with the KRUSS DSA software. The results acquired from the initial measurements conducted for the H~2~O/CO~2~... |
