    Abstract

    This thesis introduces new theoretical models to predict the kinetics of spontaneous emulsification in both single- and multi-mechanism systems in the presence of electrolytes. The models incorporate all relevant dependent and independent parameters that govern the kinetics, providing a comprehensive understanding of the process. The results offer valuable insights for optimizing emulsification processes in industrial applications, including oil recovery, food processing, and pharmaceutical formulation.
