Poor separation of acid water from oil in reduced-top water streams

2020-03-18View Original

Thread Content

I would like to ask the experts: When using reduced-top water and acidic water, emulsification occurs, the color turns white, the pH is 7, and there is an oily appearance. I wonder which master has encountered this and what caused it.

Raise the liquid level and see if that helps

It is caused by large changes in temperature or flow rate after cooling.

1. The liquid removal pack is designed to be too small, resulting in insufficient water retention time. 2. Oil and water are emulsified, making separation difficult. Solution: Since it is not possible to increase the size of the liquid removal pack, an emulsifier can be selected and added to address this issue.
