作者簡介
Prof. Chun Huh is one of the world's leading experts on surfactant- and polymer-based enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods. "Chun Huh equation," which predicts ultralow interfacial tension from microemulsion solubilization, is widely used for the design of surfactant-based EOR processes. He is also the formulator of "Huh-Scriven paradox," whose resolution is still being proposed by fluid mechanics researchers working on dynamics of wetting. Since joining UT Austin in 2004, Dr. Huh has started research on use of nanoparticles for a variety of upstream oil industry applications. Some of the applications being developed are: use of superparamagnetic nanoparticles (i) for efficient removal of "contaminants" from oilfield produced water, (ii) for improved oil and gas production flow assurance, and (iii) for precision conformance control; and use of silica nanoparticles for EOR mobility control.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)
胡春教授是全球在表面活性劑和聚合物基增強油氣回收（EOR）方法方面的領先專家之一。'胡春方程'預測微乳液溶解所產生的超低界面張力，廣泛應用於表面活性劑基EOR過程的設計。他也是'胡-斯克里文悖論'的提出者，該悖論的解決方案仍在流體力學研究者中提出，這些研究者專注於濕潤動力學。自2004年加入德克薩斯大學奧斯汀分校以來，胡博士開始研究納米顆粒在各種上游石油行業應用中的使用。目前正在開發的一些應用包括：使用超順磁性納米顆粒（i）有效去除油田產水中的'污染物'，（ii）改善油氣生產流量保證，以及（iii）精確的適應控制；以及使用二氧化矽納米顆粒進行EOR流動性控制。
