| Crude oil desalting |
|
Effective crude oil desalting is achieved by optimizing the crude/wash water contacting during the dissolution of the salt, followed by an effective separation of the two phases to avoid water carry over in the crude oil.
Sulzer Chemtech is a supplier of SMV™ type crude/wash water dispersers to enable intensive contacting of the two immiscible liquids through a swarm of water droplets formed in a mixer. A homogenous distribution of the these droplets in the crude oil and the large and continuously renewed interfacial area are created in order to facilitate mass transfer. | |

Customer advantages
- Predictable and narrow drop size distribution supresses undesirable emulsification and allows safe sizing of the settler
- Reduction of carry-over and under-carry phenomena
- Maximized interfacial surface area for enhanced mass transfer
- High turn-down potential
- Low pressure drop resulting in low energy requirements
