Primary equipment for the separation of a mixture of Oil, Water, Gas and Solids by proper distribution of Phases in contact

摘要

It is a equipment for the separation of a mixture of Oil, Water, Gas and Solids from an Oil Field, which uses the principle of increasing the contact areas between the liquid phases (Oil and Water), through an appropriate distribution of the two phases each other, which makes est And particular TeamCompared with Conventional Methods of Separation is the fact that all these processes are performed in a single deviceWhich is characterized by: a container type large diameter distillation column which is separated Four streams in one step because it has a gas Separation Section consisting of a single tangential Inlet Cyclone Oil that allows the load to a sec Be open to liquid Oil into the bottom of the computer.Has a Section of Distribution load flow in the bottom of the equipment, the Distributor can have different configurations, provided that these comply with the characteristics of occupying the most available area in the bottom of the Tank, the distribution area is higher The area of the downstream loadAnd the pressure drop and Flow of each Hole of the Distributor is very similar. In addition, the Dealer has the characteristic of making holes in the same direction of flow of the downpipe, i.e. down to direct Solids at the bottom of the unit.It has a collection of Solid Section at the bottom of the equipment, to collect, ACCUMULATE and withdraw all the solid Fund through a washing device with nozzles that fluidizan Solids before removing them, taking advantage of the operating pressure of the equipment.In a third part of the straight length of the team is the first Holes perforated Distribution Plate has a suitable size of holes, so that according to the viscosity of the crude, this is the best way to distribute the water Chamber and the process Ideal contact between the phases for the exchange rate of the two Fluids.
