Demulsification of crude oil-in-water emulsions by means of fungal spores
Fig 9
Fluorescence emission as a function of time for an O/W emulsion suspended in water and in presence of fungal spores.
Conditions: λex = 290 nm, λem = 340 nm; O/W emulsion concentration = 20 ppm; 1.0 g/L of fungal spores were added at t = 4 min (dashed line), temperature T = 34°C. Results shown are representative of 3 different experiments.
