Systems for generating stable emulsions may employ one or more liquid-liquid ejectors for mixing the oil with water through motive and suction streams to produce the emulsion as a discharge stream. One or more motive tanks may be fluidly coupled to the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors; the one or more motive tanks may supply the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors with a motive fluid. One or more suction tanks may be fluidly coupled to the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors; the one or more suction tanks may supply the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors with a suction fluid. One or more discharge tanks may be fluidly coupled to the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors; the one or more discharge tanks may collect an emulsion from the one or more liquid-liquid ejectors. Additionally, a flow line coupled to the one or more discharge tanks may feed the emulsions into a formation.

A low complexity, low powered, non-invasive, and wearable system for detecting pulmonary edema and emphysema by estimating an average dielectric constant includes a radio frequency (RF) sensor array, which is fabricated along a flexible substrate, a data collection unit, a body area network (BAN), and a post-processing unit. The flexibility of the flexible substrate allows the RF sensor array to worn around the chest region. A plurality of ports of the RF sensor array is used to measure a set of transmission coefficients. The data collection unit accumulates and transfers the set of transmission coefficients to the post-processing unit, wherein the BAN is used during the transfer process. At the post-processing unit, the average dielectric constant is estimated. Since the average dielectric constant can be used as a measure of fluids and air within the lungs, pulmonary edema and emphysema may be detected using the average dielectric constant.
