Petroleum refineries produce substantial wastewater contaminated with heavy oil emulsions during crude oil processing. These emulsions, formed by oil, water, and impurities, are difficult to treat and pose risks to environmental compliance. A critical solution to this challenge is the demulsifier for petroleum refineries, a specialized chemical that breaks down stable oil-water mixtures.
The core function of this demulsifier lies in disrupting the interfacial film between oil droplets and water, allowing oil to coalesce and separate. To enhance treatment efficiency, it is often used alongside an oil remover—another agent that captures residual oil particles—and an oil separator, a piece of equipment that physically separates the coalesced oil from water. This combined process ensures that the treated wastewater meets industrial discharge standards.
As an essential type of industrial demulsifier, the one designed for heavy oil emulsions in refineries exhibits high adaptability to harsh conditions, such as high temperatures and salinity. Its reliable performance not only reduces environmental pollution but also enables the recovery of valuable oil resources, bringing both ecological and economic benefits to refinery operations.
