Heavily polluted oil is fed into the tank along with crude oil
Thread Content
I have a question for everyone: if a small amount of heavy contaminated oil is mixed with crude oil and poured into the feed tank, and since heavy contaminated oil is denser than crude oil, will it sink to the bottom of the tank after being poured in? Is it still heavy crude oil mixed in with the crude oil? Thank you, I don’t quite understand
Heavily contaminated oil will gradually sink to the bottom of the tank due to its higher density than crude oil, but it may take some time to settle and separate completely when the tank is not in motion. At the same time, if crude oil and heavy residue oil are well mixed before being fed into the tank, an emulsified state may also form, which can hinder sedimentation to some extent. The specific situation depends on the properties of the oil and the actual conditions. .
