NON-DISPERSIVE PROCESS FOR INSOLUBLE OIL RECOVERY FROM LIQUID SOURCES

摘要

The present invention is directed to a method and system of recovering one or more oils from an aqueous mixture comprising using one or more non-dispersive hydrophobic hollow fiber membrane contactors, comprising the steps of pumping the aqueous mixture comprising the one or more oils to the one or more non-dispersive hydrophobic hollow fiber membrane contactors; and collecting a stream from the contactor, wherein the stream comprises the oils without the need for a counterflowing recovery fluid.
