Application
- Optimal Design of Alkaline-Surfactant-Polymer Flooding under Low Salinity Environment: Research highlights the use of diethylene glycol monobutyl ether in enhancing the efficiency of enhanced oil recovery methods, particularly in low salinity environments. This application points to its potential in reducing the environmental footprint of oil extraction processes (Novriansyah A, et al., 2020).
- Bioaugmentation for treatment of full-scale diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (DGBE) wastewater by Serratia sp. BDG-2: Demonstrates the solvents biodegradability and the potential for its removal from wastewater using specific bacterial strains, highlighting important environmental safety considerations (Chen M, et al., 2016).
- Diethylene glycol mono butyl ether concentrations in room air from application of cleaner formulations to hard surfaces: Examines the air quality implications of using diethylene glycol monobutyl ether in cleaning products, stressing the importance of monitoring and managing indoor air pollutants in industrial and domestic environments (Gibson WB, et al., 1991).
