Abstract
This work aims to synthesize novel amphiphilic ionic liquids (AILs), AH-PM, and AD-PM as well as apply them to chemically demulsifying crude oil emulsions. Two AILs containing different long alkyl chains were synthesized and characterized using several techniques. The surface and interfacial indicated AILs’ surface activity and ability to form micelles. For that, the demulsification efficacy (DE) of these AILs was explored using different factors affecting, e.g., AIL dose, settling time (ST), water content, and temperature. The results indicated that the AIL hydrophobicity resulting from the longer alkyl chain could improve AIL DE. Moreover, increased AIL dose, ST, water content, and temperature improved DE.
本研究旨在合成新型两亲离子液体(AILs)、AH-PM 和 AD-PM,并将其应用于原油乳液的化学破乳。采用多种技术合成并表征了两种含有不同长烷基链的 AIL。表面和界面显示了 AILs 的表面活性和形成胶束的能力。为此,利用不同的影响因素,如 AIL 剂量、沉降时间(ST)、含水量和温度,对这些 AIL 的破乳化功效(DE)进行了探讨。结果表明,较长的烷基链所产生的 AIL 疏水性可提高 AIL 的脱泡效能。此外,增加 AIL 剂量、沉降时间、含水量和温度也能提高脱盐率。
