Description

UNITED STATES REUBEN D. TURNER, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN APPARATUS FOR REFINING OILS.
' Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 156,899, dated November 17, 1874; application filed April 28, 1874.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, REUBEN D. TURNER, of the city, county, and State of New York,
` have invented an Improved Apparatus for the Treatment of Petroleum and other Gils, of which the following is a specification:
This invention more particularly relates to the treatmentof petroleum oils for the purpose of bleaching` them and depriving them of their odorous and explosive properties, and includes the exposure of the oil in an atomized condition to the direct agency or action by contact of steam, which absorbs the iiashing7 principles of the oil and generally irnproves it. The invention consists in an apparatus or means whereby the oil to be treated is vaporized, and said vapor, as it passes to a condenser, brought in intimate contact with the vapor of water or steam, substantially as hereinafter described.
The accompanying drawing represents a I sectional elevation of an apparatus in illustration of my invention.
A is an oil boiler or evaporator, having a furnace, B, and the vapors generated in which are conducted by a pipe, b, into a laterallyperforated mixing cylinder or chamber, C, which connects, by a dip-pipe, d, with the rst, D, of a consecutive series of condensers, to the last of which a blower-producing suction maybe applied to promote the iiow of the vapors or liquid through the apparatus. E is a steam cylinder or jacket surrounding the perforated mixingcylinder C, and supplied with steam by a'pipe, f, from an ordinary steam-boiler or otherwise. This steamjacket E is preferably made inclining downward at its bottom in a direction toward the condenser for the purpose of collecting or directing any Water of condensation which, on
starting the apparatus, may be run oft by a pipe, g, and, after starting, may, on closing a cock -in said pipe, be run olii' by a branch, h, into the dip-pipe d.
The oil in the mixing-cylinder C, it will be observed, is not simply atomized, but highly heated and in a state of vapor, and is, consequently, in a'most favorable condition for the direct and absorbing action of the steam upon it, sai'd steam issuing' from the jacketE through the orifices in the chamber C, and intercepting or intimately commingling With the oilvapors as they pass to the condenser, where, or from which, in running off, the oil thus bleached, deodorized, and improved by the absorbent properties of the steam, is separated from the water of condensation for use as required for illuminating and other purposes.
`the perforated mixing-chamber C, for the vapors of the oil and steam, drip-pipe (l, and one or more condensers, D, all being arranged for operation as herein shown.'
