Salinity Effects

Salinity Effects is a scientific construct in petroleum and environmental engineering that characterizes the influence of ionic concentration in aqueous phases on interfacial phenomena, rock-fluid interactions, and fluid flow behavior in porous media, particularly in enhanced oil recovery processes such as alkaline, polymer, and foam flooding.
