  • What is the main raw material for the production of lecithins?
  • The main raw material for the production of lecithins in the world is soybean. This is related, firstly, to the large areas of soybean cultivation and the volume of soybean oil production, and, secondly, to the high content of phospholipids in soybean oil (up to 3.0%) compared to other vegetable oils .
  • Why is soybean lecithin important?
  • To prevent oil droplets from coalescing and to improve their dispersion in the water phase of an emulsion, soybean lecithin forms a protective coating around them. Because it lowers interfacial tension and provides steric hindrance against droplet aggregation, soybean lecithin is useful at stabilizing emulsions and boosting oil recovery.
  • Is soybean lecithin a biobased surfactant for oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion?
  • However, current surfactants used for EOR are non-biodegradable and are made from toxic chemicals. Here, we report the potential of soybean lecithin as a biobased surfactant for enhancing oil recovery by stabilizing oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions.
  • Does soybean lecithin perform well in oil phase?
  • Comparative evaluation reveals that soybean lecithin performs competitively, outperforming certain commercial surfactants in terms of emulsion stability in oil phase. The solubilization ratio of oil (SR o) values are lecithin?=?3.2219, CAPB?=?0.7028, CTAC?=?11.1044, NP10EO?=?11.1570, and SLES?=?11.7067.
  • Is soy lecithin hydrophilic?
  • Soy lecithin (C 35 H 66 NO 7 P) is a surfactant made from soybean oil. It has a hydrophilic head and a lipophilic tail. Phospholipids make up around 65¨C75% of soy lecithin, with triglycerides accounting for the remaining 34%. Colors, carbohydrates, sterol glycosides, and sterols are all present in trace levels .
  • What are the operating parameters for soybean lecithin?
  • The optimized operating parameters for soybean lecithin are determined to be at pH?=?4, salinity?=?84,171.08 ppm, and surfactant loading?=?4.48 wt.%. Comparative evaluation reveals that soybean lecithin performs competitively, outperforming certain commercial surfactants in terms of emulsion stability in oil phase.
