Enhanced Oil-Water Separation-The Performax Coalescer
Proceedings of SPE Production Operations Symposium, 1983ABSTRACT The Freewater Knockout (FWKO) has been the basic oil field standard in oil-water separation for many years; The PerformaxR Matrix Plate Coalescer is an improved enhanced oil-water separator which satisfies the oil producers' desire for a simple, efficient separator. Sizing and case history information is reviewed.

Starch/PVA hydrogels for oil/water separation
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2019PVA polymers have been well-known as water-absorbing materials but their brittle nature hinders their applicability. In this study, we enhanced the strength of hydrogel and its water-absorbing capabilities by glutaraldehyde-assisted crosslinking of starch with PVA and blending BMIM-BF4 to enhance the plasticity and generate porosity within the hydrogel

The effect of bubble size on oil-water separation efficiency for a novel oil-water separation column
Separation Science and Technology, 2015AbstractBubble size is a key factor in froth flotation for oil-water separation. In this paper, the bubble size which impacts on oil removal efficiency for a novel oil-water separation column was researched systematically. The bubble size distribution was researched by using the photographic method and Matlab software.

Mesofluidic Oil-Water Separation
Volume 8: Fluids EngineeringAbstract A key problem in industrial environments is the separation of oil-water mixtures. Although phase separation can be relatively fast on small scales or when density differences are large, phase separation becomes increasingly challenging at large scales and when the densities of the involved phases’ densities differ only ...

Control of Compact Separators for Oil-Water Separation
Volume 2: Multiphase Flows Applications; Fluids Applications; Microfluidics; Fluids Mechanics Fundamentals; Fluids Engineering EducationAbstract The petroleum industry in the U.S. generates over 24 billion barrels of produced water annually, making it the largest volume of unwanted byproduct associated with oil and gas production. This volume is approximately 70 times greater than that of all liquid hazardous wastes generated in the U.S.
