This review focuses on recent works on foam drainage + including both the advanced theoretical and experimental studies into foam drainage, standard and extended drainage theories with analytical and numerical solutions. Highlights of recent works include the effect of physico-chemical properties of the gas-liquid interface on foam drainage, and the foam-structure related properties governing the channel-and node-dominated drainage regimes. Important results obtained using the foam pressure drop technique which allows a systematic investigation of foam drainage with the constant and varying Plateau border radius are discussed. The free and forced drainage methods have also been the useful experimental techniques for revealing two important drainage regimes by the channels and the nodes. Finally, the influence of the syneresis on the foam stability and destruction is reviewed.
