The review highlights the synergistic effects of low-salinity water flooding, nanoparticles, and surfactants in enhancing oil recovery.
Experimental findings show nanoparticles improve recovery rates by 45-55%, while surfactants and LSWF reach 50-60% and 40-50%, respectively.
Key challenges include nanoparticle agglomeration and surfactant adsorption impacting efficiency and practical application.
Interdisciplinary collaboration is necessary for developing sustainable strategies and addressing existing research gaps in oil recovery methodologies.
