Mohr Separations Research, Inc. 1278 FM 407 Suite 109 Lewisville, TX 75077 Phone: 918-299-9290 Cell: 918-269-8710 John N. Veenstra, Ph.D., P.E., Oklahoma State University Dee Ann Sanders, Ph.D., P.E. Oklahoma State University A paper presented at the International Petroleum Environment Conference in Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1998 ABSTRACT In this work, an overview of oil-water separation, as used in the petroleum refining industries, is presented along with case studies. Discussions include: impact of solids, legal aspects, and differing types of systems currently in use, along with their advantages and disadvantages. Performance information on separators is presented with an emphasis on new multiple angle coalescing plate technology for refinery wastewater management. Several studies are presented including a large (20,000 US GPM flow rate) system recently installed at a major US refinery. The separator was constructed by converting two existing API separators into four separators, and adding multiple angle coalescing plates to increase throughput and efficiency. A year of operating experience with this system indicates good performance and few problems. Other examples provide information on separators installed in the United States and other countries. Keywords: Oil-water separator, multiple angle, coalescence, refinery, wastewater management, petroleum, coalescing plate technology BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION Oil has been refined for various uses for at least 1000 years. An Arab handbook written by Al-Razi, in approximately 865 A.D., describes distillation of “naft” (naphtha) for use in lamps and thus the beginning of oil refining (Forbes).

Abstract: The active components in garlic essential oil are easily degradable, which limits its ap- plication in the food industry. Vegetable oils (VOs) were used to improve the stability of garlic essential oil (GEO) emulsion. The volatile compounds of GEO and its mixtures with vegetable oils (VOs), including corn oil (CO), soybean oil (SO), and olive oil (OO) indicated that GEO-VO mixtures had a higher percentage of Diallyl disulfide and Diallyl trisulfide than pure GEO. Adding an appropriate amount of VOs promoted the GEO emulsion (whey protein concentrate and inulin as Citation: Zhao, Y.; Liu, R.; Qi, C.; Li, the wall materials) stability in order of CO > SO > OO. Evaluation of the encapsulation efficiency, W.; Rifky, M.; Zhang, M.; Xiao, P.; Wu, controlled release, and antimicrobial activity of GEO-VO microcapsules showed that the GEO was T.; Sui, W.

  • A Marine Waste Biorefinery
    A Marine Waste Biorefinery A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) at Newcastle University by Ahmed Said Hamed Al Hatrooshi November 2019 Abstract Biodiesel is a renewable alternative to ‘petro-diesel’. There is already an established, conventional production technology based on refined vegetable oils. However, this is always more expensive than producing petroleum-based diesel, mainly due to the feedstock cost. Use of a cheap, non- edible feedstock, such as waste shark liver oil (WSLO), would reduce the biodiesel production cost and make the process economically viable. WSLO is obtained by exposing sharks’ livers to the sun until they melt and collecting the oil produced. Sharks’ livers comprise 25-30% of their body weight. Historically, the discarded WSLO was used for waterproofing wooden boats. However, this application is no longer required, as modern boats are made of fibreglass. The excess WSLO derived from these discarded sharks’ livers has great potential for being further processed into valuable products, including biodiesel, squalene and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA). The glyceride components of the WSLO can be converted into biodiesel using existing biodiesel processing technologies, while the squalene, EPA and DHA may be extracted and sold as value-added products through biorefinery processes. This study investigated the production of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) from WSLO using both acid (sulfuric acid, H2SO4) and base (sodium hydroxide, NaOH) catalysts. Due to the high levels of free fatty acids (FFA) in WSLO, homogeneous alkali-catalysed transesterification was less effective than the acid-catalysed process, resulting in a maximum WSLO to FAME conversion of only 40% after 15 min at a 60°C temperature, a 1.5 wt.% of NaOH catalyst and a 6:1 molar ratio of methanol to WSLO.

  • Chapter 15. Gravity Separation
    Chapter 15. Gravity Separation IS. INTRODUCTION Separation by density difference is a process that is as old as recorded history. Separation of gold by density difference dates back to at least 3,000 BC as depicted in writings from ancient Egypt. The principle employed in gravity separation goes back further in time to the formation and weathering of the rocks and the releasing of the minerals they contain and the transport of the mineral grains by heavy rains. It is the driving force for the formation of the alluvial deposits of precious metals and gemstones that have been worked since beyond recorded history as they still are today. Archaeological excavations have discovered mineral concentration activities such as the lead-silver concentrating plant in Attica, Greece, dating from 300-400 BC. So gravity separation has a long history as a mineral concentration process. Not all mineral combinations are amenable to this type of concentration technique. To determine the suitability of gravity separation processes to a particular ore type, a concentration criterion is commonly used. A concentration criterion (CC) can be defined as [1]: „ . „. SG of heavy mineral-SG of fluid ,<-,.. Concentration Criterion = (15.1) SG of light mineral - SG of fluid where SG = specific gravity (or density), and the fluid is typically water or air. Some concentration criterion ratios for minerals that are treated by gravity separation are given in Table 15.1. Table 15.1 Concentration criterion for some common minerals separated by gravity separation from a gangue of density 2650 kg/m3 Mineral Fluid CC Gold water 10.3 Gold air 6.8 Cassiterite water 3.5 Coal water 3.4 Hematite water 2.5 A guideline for separability by gravity based on this concentration criterion is given in Table 15.2.

  • Recovery of Inorganic Compounds from Spent Alkaline Pulping Liquor by Eutectic Freeze Crystallization and Supporting Unit Operations: a Review
    REVIEW ARTICLE bioresources.com Recovery of Inorganic Compounds from Spent Alkaline Pulping Liquor by Eutectic Freeze Crystallization and Supporting Unit Operations: A Review Martin A. Hubbe,*,a Emily M. A. Becheleni,b Alison E. Lewis,c Edward M. Peters,d Weixing Gan,e Guanzai Nong,f Sujata Mandal,g and Sheldon Q. Shi g After the kraft or soda pulping of lignocellulosic materials to produce pulp suitable for papermaking, the spent pulping liquor typically has been recovered by multi-effect evaporation, followed by incineration in a recovery boiler. This review article considers one unit operation, eutectic freeze crystallization (EFC), that may have potential to save some of the energy that is presently consumed in the evaporation step during recovery of inorganic chemicals from spent pulping liquor. Based on a review of the literature it appears that EFC can be employed to obtain relatively pure sodium sulfate and sodium carbonate, along with relatively pure water (in the form of ice) from the spent liquor, under the assumption that lignin previously has been removed by acidification and precipitation. Issues of inorganic scale formation, during the operation of an EFC process applied to lignin-free black liquor, will require research attention. The chemical reactions to regenerate the active pulping chemicals sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfide from sodium carbonate, sodium sulfate, and other compounds isolated by EFC can be carried out either in a separate operation or by returning the materials to the feed of an existing recovery

(Received on November 23, 2017; accepted on November 5, 2018; J-STAGE Advance published date: December 20, 2018) Immobilization of chromium in a stable spinel by modification is a powerful way to prevent chromium pollution of stainless steel (SS) slags. The precipitated spinel grain size is usually smaller than 30 μm, however, which limits the effectiveness of the modification. In the literature, very few efforts have been reported on promotion of spinel growth rate by optimizing the dynamic conditions. In this study, the effects of shear force on the spinel grain size evolution under isothermal conditions and during cooling were investigated. The experimental results indicate that the employment of shear force significantly changes the growth behavior of spinel at 1 500°C. The growth mechanism of spinel was studied by using crystal size distribution (CSD) theory, showing different regimes of supply-controlled Ostwald ripening, surface-controlled growth with decaying nucleation rate, and constant rate nucleation and growth at shear rates of 0 s −1, 10.83 s −1, and 21.67 s −1, respectively.

ABSTRACT In recent years. the Knelson Concentrator has become the predominant unit used for primary goid recovery by gravity . However. its application potential as a cleaner in the final gravity concentration stage and its separation mechanisms have not been well studied. In most Canadian gold mills. rougher gravity concentrates produced by the Knelson (operating at 60 gravity acceleration or 'g') are further upgraded with shaking tables.
