A kind of preparation method of porous mullite microballoon
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of forming technique of stupalith, specifically a kind of preparation method of porous mullite microballoon.
Technical background
Oil, also known as crude oil, is thick, the Vandyke brown liquid of one of mixture composition of various alkane, naphthenic hydrocarbon, aromatic hydrocarbon.In recent years, along with the fast development of Chinese national economy, the demand of oil day by day strengthens, and improves the utilization ratio in exploitation oil field, reduces the cost of winning of oil, becomes the important subject urgently to be resolved hurrily that China's current oil production industry faces.In recent years, in the new proven reserve of China's oil about 82% be hyposmosis storage.Most Oil/gas Well must utilize fracturing yield increasing technology to improve Oil & Gas Productivity.
Hydraulic fracturing technology is one of important technology improving Oil & Gas Productivity in petroleum industry.In hydraulic fracturing process, be the state making waterfrac treatment rock fracture fracture width keep wider, the optional spherical solid particles with having advantages of higher compressive strength injects rock crevice supporting crack with fracturing liquid.Selected propping agent propping agent improves the flow conductivity near wellbore stratum in rock crevice, reduces liquid is flowed into pit shaft resistance by stratum, adds Oil/gas Well output.
Quartz sand is widely used in oil-gas field fracturing exploitation as hydraulic fracturing proppants.Volume density is 1.62g/cm
3; Volume density is 2.62g/cm
3; Under 28MPa locking pressure, percentage of damage is 12.0% ~ 14.0%.In the eighties in 20th century, going abroad has showed precured resin coated quartz sand outward.It is, the deficiency such as flow conductivity poor low according to quartz sand ultimate compression strength, at quartz sand surface overlay film one deck thermosetting resin, and the Novel propping agent solidified under certain condition, for pressure break supporting crack, replace quartz sand and part haydite.
In recent years, many scientific researchers, in order to prepare cheap high performance bauxitic clay base petroleum fracturing propping agent, had carried out many Science Explorationss.Such as, in sintering process, introducing some mineral additives to promote to be formed more corundum phase or mullite phase, taking to reduce costs other technologies to innovate improvement of production process etc.Develop the use that sintering ceramsite meets most Oil/gas Well substantially
At present, in Oil/gas Well, in waterfrac treatment volume increase, mainly use the petroleum fracturing propping agent of the low-density propping agent of natural siliceous sand, medium tenacity, medium tenacity high density proppants, high-intensity high-density propping agent and coating Procuring coating and five types such as the natural sand of curable coating resin or artificial stays agent.They play different effects separately in oil gas well mining process.
For the ease of pumping into down-hole, reduce propping agent to the wearing and tearing of equipment, therefore when withstanding formation closure pressure, the density of propping agent is more low better.Be under the condition of 200 DEG C in temperature, proppant particles not with the reservoir fluid generation chemical reaction of fracturing liquid and oil gas rock crevice, in current industry, the acid solubility permissible value of common demands propping agent is not higher than 7%.There is the sufficient source of goods, cheap price.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is: how to reduce production cost, is preparing porous mullite haydite simultaneously, is reducing its density, obtain can be used for oil fracturing, high-strength low close porous mullite haydite.

4ball and dehydrated alcohol are ball-milling medium, continuous ball milling wet mixing 20h, then dry and sieve, obtain uniform mixed powder;
Dispersion agent (dispersion agent for polyvinyl alcohol or polyvinyl alcohol) is added in step 2, the mixed powder prepared in step one, and then add deionized water, be placed in ball grinder ball milling 8 h ~ 24h, prepare the uniform and stable aqueous-based ceramic slurry of different solid load, wherein dispersion agent accounts for 0.5% ~ 1% of mixed powder quality, and the volume of slurry solid phase accounts for 10% ~ 40% of slip cumulative volume;
Step 3, slurry to be poured in oil into the (mixture that oil is Semen Maydis oil and kerosene, its mass ratio is 3:2 ~ 10:1), aqueous-based ceramic slurry and oil balling-up emulsification under the effect of high-speed stirring (high-speed stirring refers to that mixing speed is 200 ~ 250 revs/min) in polystyrene dish, form oil-slurry mixed solution, aqueous-based ceramic slurry forms microspheric drop;
Step 4, oil-slurry mixed solution is put into polystyrene dish, alcohol medium in freezing (freezing temp is-30 DEG C ~-10 DEG C), and filter the ceramic microsphere and separation of oil that make to solidify;
Step 5, ceramic microsphere will be solidified be placed in freeze drier, and make it dry; Dried ceramic microsphere is carried out in alumina crucible pressureless sintering and form porous mullite microballoon, non-pressure sintering technology is for being that 20 DEG C/min is warming up to 950 DEG C with temperature rise rate, insulation 1h, is then warming up to 1100 DEG C ~ 1300 DEG C, and insulation 2h obtains porous mullite microballoon.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: the present invention breaks through traditional technology, adopting eco-friendly water for preparing slurry; Adopt the Technology that in oil, balling-up combines with lyophilize to prepare the porous mullite microballoon with high porosity, porous mullite microsphere density is less than 1.6g/cm
