PROCESSING METHOD OF HYDROCARBON-BEARING SLURRIES IN OUTDOOR STORAGES USING UHF ELECTROMAGNETIC EMISSION

摘要

FIELD: ecology.;SUBSTANCE: processing of hydrocarbon-bearing (HCB) slurries in outdoor storages involves continuous action of UHF electromagnetic emission. A protective metal casing with an UHF emission generator fixed on it and a gas discharge pipe for gaseous products of HCB slurry after processing is installed on the surface of the reserved area of the storage. Emission energy is localised in slurry volume between the protective metal casing submerged into the treated medium to the depth that is not lower than j of UHF emission wave length and boundary of depth of emission penetration into the treated medium and causes slurry destruction. Gaseous decomposition products are removed for further separation into fractions. Slurry processing is continued till a gas release process is stopped. Emission power required for heating of the treated slurry volume till the specified temperature is determined by the formula: P1 = T1·α·S·V, and heating time where T1 is specified temperature; α - volumetric coefficient of heat exchange of the treated section with environment; S - contact surface area of the treated volume with environment; V - volume of treated medium; c, ρ - averaged heat capacity and density of the treated HCB slurry.;EFFECT: invention provides effective processing of HCB slurry without any additional transportation of slurries, excludes environmental pollution with products after processing due to absence of slurry movement.;2 cl, 1 dwg
