この発明は油分と水分がエマルジョン状として或いは粒
子分散状として存在している油水混合液から油分と水分
とを分離する油水分離剤に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an oil-water separation agent that separates oil and water from an oil-water mixture in which the oil and water exist in the form of an emulsion or a particle dispersion.
油分と水分とがエマルジョン又は分散状に存在する場合
としては例えば脱塩するために重油を水洗するときに生
じるエマルジョン、事故により重油に雨水等が混合した
場合のエマルジョン、油井から採油した原油に水分が混
入している場合のエマルジョン、原油精製の際に脱塩の
ため水洗することによって生じるエマルジョン、原油と
水とを同時に輸送管に流して移送する場合に生じるエマ
ルジョン、排水中に切削油、その他の油分が流れ込んで
生じたエマルジョンなどがある。Examples of cases in which oil and water exist in the form of an emulsion or dispersion include emulsions that occur when heavy oil is washed with water for desalination, emulsions that occur when heavy oil is mixed with rainwater due to an accident, and moisture in crude oil extracted from an oil well. Emulsions produced when crude oil is mixed with water, emulsions produced by washing with water for desalination during crude oil refining, emulsions produced when crude oil and water are simultaneously transferred through transport pipes, cutting oil in wastewater, etc. There are emulsions that are formed when oil flows into the liquid.
これらのエマルジョンは油分中に水分が分散する場合の
いわゆるW2O型と、水中に油分が分散する場合のいわ
ゆる0/W型があり、これらのエマルジョンを破壊して
油と水を二層に分離する油水分離方法は、加熱あるいは
遠心分離などの物理的な方法が行われている。These emulsions are of the so-called W2O type, in which water is dispersed in oil, and the so-called 0/W type, in which oil is dispersed in water.These emulsions are broken to separate oil and water into two layers. Physical methods such as heating and centrifugation are used to separate oil and water.
そしてエマルジョンが安定な場合や分散質が分散媒に比
較して非常に少い場合は物理的な方法に化学的な方法と
して油水分離剤が併用される。When the emulsion is stable or when the amount of dispersoid is very small compared to the dispersion medium, an oil-water separating agent is used in combination with the physical method as a chemical method.
例えば燃料油としての重油中に水分が存在すると燃焼状
態が不安定となる。For example, if water is present in heavy oil as fuel oil, the combustion state becomes unstable.
通常、ボイラ用バーナを用いる場合、燃料油中に5%以
上の水分が存在すると燃焼が不安定になるのでJISの
規定によって一般用重油は水分が2%以下と規定されて
いる。Normally, when a burner for a boiler is used, if the fuel oil contains 5% or more water, combustion becomes unstable, so the JIS stipulates that general heavy oil has a water content of 2% or less.
又、原油精製においても脱塩後、水分が多いとトッピン
グを起し、精製装置に障害を与えることがある。Also, in crude oil refining, if there is a large amount of moisture after desalting, topping may occur and may cause trouble to refining equipment.
このような場合は油中に水分が非常に安定なエマルジョ
ンとして存在しており、水分離の効果が直接、燃焼効率
又は精製効率の向上となり、水分離には高性能な水分離
剤が要求される。In such cases, water exists in the oil as a very stable emulsion, and the effect of water separation directly improves combustion efficiency or purification efficiency, and a high-performance water separation agent is required for water separation. Ru.
この様なエマルジョン溶液に対する従来の油水分離剤と
しては石油スルフォン酸塩、ヒマシ油の硫酸化物、コハ
ク酸エステルの硫酸塩、ポリオキシエチレンアルキルフ
ェノールエーテル、ポリオキシエチレンポリオキシプロ
ピレンジエーテル等の各種界面活性剤が使用されている
。Conventional oil-water separation agents for such emulsion solutions include various surfactants such as petroleum sulfonates, castor oil sulfates, succinic ester sulfates, polyoxyethylene alkylphenol ethers, and polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene diethers. agent is used.
界面活性剤はエマルジョンに添加されると油相と水相と
の境界面に配位し、攪拌、加熱等の僅かな物理的作用に
よって分散質が凝集して分離する。When a surfactant is added to an emulsion, it coordinates at the interface between the oil phase and the aqueous phase, and the dispersoids are aggregated and separated by a slight physical action such as stirring or heating.
しかし上記の各種界面活性剤を利用した油水分離法は油
水分離率や処理能力が充分なものでなく、例えば油水が
分離されたとしても界面には水分がエマルジョン状に含
む油層が残存する。However, the oil-water separation methods using the various surfactants described above do not have sufficient oil-water separation efficiency or treatment capacity; for example, even if oil and water are separated, an oil layer containing water in the form of an emulsion remains at the interface.
更に界面活性剤のみを加えたのでは遠心分離、加熱等の
物理的方法の併用が必要な場合が多く、しかも油水分離
後物理的方法を停止すると油水が再びエマルジョン化す
ることが多い。Furthermore, when only a surfactant is added, it is often necessary to use physical methods such as centrifugation and heating in combination, and furthermore, when the physical method is stopped after oil-water separation, the oil-water often emulsifies again.
本発明は油分と水分とがエマルジョン状態に或いは粒子
分散状に存在している場合に最も有効な新規の油水分離
剤に関するもので、適応できるのは原油、精製油、スロ
ップオイル、タール等液状であればどの様な油でもよい
が、これらの液状の油と水がエマルジョン又は分散状に
なっている混合液に添加すればよい。The present invention relates to a novel oil-water separating agent that is most effective when oil and water exist in an emulsion state or in a particle dispersion state, and is applicable to liquids such as crude oil, refined oil, slop oil, and tar. Any type of oil may be used, but it may be added to a mixture of these liquid oils and water in the form of an emulsion or dispersion.
本発明の油水分離剤は界面活性剤とポリアミドの単独或
いは二種以上を加えたものを主成分とする。The oil/water separating agent of the present invention contains a surfactant and a polyamide alone or in combination of two or more thereof as main components.
界面活性剤は従来から油水分離剤として使用されている
ものであればどの様なものでもよい。The surfactant may be any surfactant as long as it has been conventionally used as an oil-water separating agent.
一方、ポリアミドとしては一般式が HO(−QC−R−CONH−R’−NH−)。On the other hand, the general formula for polyamide is HO(-QC-R-CONH-R'-NH-).
H(nは2〜10の整数が適当、RはCが30〜40の
炭化水素、R′は−CH2−CH2−で表わされるエチ
レン基)
で表わされ、分子量が1500〜5000のものを使用
するのである。H (n is suitably an integer of 2 to 10, R is a hydrocarbon with C of 30 to 40, R' is an ethylene group represented by -CH2-CH2-) and has a molecular weight of 1500 to 5000. Use it.
ポリアミドはカチオン性を有しているので、水と油分が
エマルジョンとして或いは分散状に含まれている油水混
合液に添加すると、アニオン性物質が中和されて油水分
離性能が向上する。Since polyamide has cationic properties, when added to an oil-water mixture containing water and oil as an emulsion or in a dispersed state, anionic substances are neutralized and oil-water separation performance is improved.
したがってポリアミドの一種又は二種以上を自由に選ん
で使用することができる。Therefore, one or more polyamides can be freely selected and used.
また必要であれば上記油水分離剤を灯油、ブチルセロソ
ルブ、メチルナフタレン等の有機溶剤や水、更にこれら
の混合溶剤に混ぜて使用してもよいし、有機溶剤や水に
全く混ぜないでそのま\使用してもよい。If necessary, the above oil-water separation agent may be used by mixing it with an organic solvent such as kerosene, butyl cellosolve, or methylnaphthalene, water, or a mixed solvent thereof, or it may be used as is without being mixed with the organic solvent or water at all. May be used.
上記の油水分離剤を油と水とがエマルジョン状となって
いる溶液に混ぜて充分に攪拌混合すると、エマルジョン
が乳化破壊されて比重差により油層が上に、水層が下に
分離する。When the above-mentioned oil-water separating agent is mixed into a solution of oil and water in the form of an emulsion and thoroughly stirred, the emulsion is demulsified and the oil layer is separated into the upper layer and the water layer is separated into the lower layer due to the difference in specific gravity.
この場合、油水の界面は極めて明確となり、容易に分け
ることができる。In this case, the oil-water interface becomes very clear and can be easily separated.
特に分離時間が極めて速く、油水分離後は再びエマルジ
ョン化することがほとんどない。In particular, the separation time is extremely fast, and emulsion is almost never re-emulsified after oil and water separation.
