Differential capacitive sensor based interface circuit design for accurate measurement of water content in crude oil

In crude oil extraction and processing, measurement of water content plays vital role. Several methods are available to measure water content in crude oil but most of them are laborious and for offline detection. For an accurate online measurement of water content in crude oil, a novel interface cir...
