Among the different control agents for oil spill containment in the sea, natural dispersants are presented as a sustainable alternative to conventional chemical dispersants. This study analyzes the efficiency of a vegetable oil-based surfactant, used to disperse petroleum hidrocarbons present in salt wáter bodies. Because of this, its emulsification capacity was determined by means of the emulsification index E24, which found maximum values for crude oil emulsions of 19.1° and 29.8° API, at concentrations of 10 % and 5 % of oil-based surfactant, respectively. These concentrations were used to find the dispersion efficiency and the effect on the degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons(TPH). On other note, dispersion efficiency was ...
