Experimental study on the dehydration of heavy oil by microwave

Heavy oil is a kind of the oil of high viscosity and great specific gravity, so the dehydration of it is very difficult. The dehydration of heavy crude oil is carried out in laboratory by microwave radiation, and the effect laws of microwave disposing ways and the water cut of the heavy crude oil on dehydrating result are studied. The microwave dehydration is compared with general thermal sedimentation dehydration. The experimental results show that, microwave dehydration has better result than general thermal sedimentation dehydration, and that the power and the radiation time of microwave and the water content of emulsion have greater effects on the dehydration result. The research results can be used for guiding the actual applications of heavy oil microwave dehydration.
