Demulsification of Water-in-Crude Oil Emulsion via Conventional Heating and Microwave Heating Technology in their Optimum Conditions
A serious problem during the production and refinery process of crude oil is the existence of emulsified water in the crude oil. From the economic and environmental points of view, water must be removed from the crude oil before going for further processing. In the last two decades, several demul...

description |
A serious problem during the production and refinery process of crude oil is the
existence of emulsified water in the crude oil. From the economic and environmental
points of view, water must be removed from the crude oil before going for further
processing. In the last two decades, several demulsification techniques have been
applied by many researchers. Since, the best method is based on the best water
separation efficiency. Therefore, a comparative study between microwave heating and
conventional heating demulsification in their optimum conditions has been carried out.
Both methods were performed with the assistance of chemical demulsifier. Through the
experimental results, it was found that comparing to the conventional heating;
microwave dielectric heating earned the best separation efficiency (100 %) in a short
time. The optimum condition in microwave dielectric heating was
irradiation time (3 minutes), microwave power (360 watt), and 2.50 vol. % demulsifier
concentration. However, in conventional heating using “hotplate” the highest separation
efficiency (96 %) was obtained at 160 ºC, and heating time 5 minutes. |
