The primary extraction way for unconventional oil/gas resources is hydraulic fracturing to alter the reservoir for commercial production. However, hydraulic fracturing technology consumes a large amount of water, and the flowback water can easily be mixed with hydrocarbon substances to form emulsions. To achieve the recycling of water, it is necessary to develop an efficient continuous demulsification method for treating the flowback fluid.

The results show that the demulsification rate of all the emulsions exceeds 98.5% in long-term operation, with a stable demulsification speed exceeding 0.

C-ring flap is currently an advanced means for repair of degloving injuries of the fingers. From May, 1999 to September, 2002, we used reversed C-ring flap middle and ring finger for repairing distal degloving injury to the thumb and forefinger in 9 cases. All flaps survived with satisfactory appearance.
