چکیده انگلیسی
In this work, a comprehensive study was performed for the evaluation of ultrasound (US) frequency for demulsification of crude oil emulsions. Experiments were performed using ultrasonic baths operating at the following frequencies: 25, 35, 45, 130, 582, 862 and 1146 kHz. Synthetic water-in-oil emulsions with 12%, 35% and 50% of water and medians of droplet size distribution (DSD, D(0.5)) of 5, 10 and 25 μm were prepared using a heavy crude oil (API density of 19). Crude oil demulsification was achieved at frequencies in the range of 25-45 kHz for all tested emulsions. When frequencies higher than 45 kHz were applied, no changes in the characteristics of the crude oil emulsions were observed. Demulsification efficiencies of about 65% were achieved at a frequency of 45 kHz after 15 min of US application (emulsions with original water content of 50% and D(0.5) = 10 μm). An important aspect is that no addition of chemical demulsifiers was performed, and the demulsification efficiency was considered high, taking into account that the results were obtained using a non-conventional crude oil. Contrary to the normal application of low-frequency US that has been used for emulsification, the proposed approach seems to be a promising technology for water removal from crude oil emulsions.
