IMPROVEMENT OF SOLVENT RECOVERY TECHNOLOGY IN OIL EXTRACTION PRODUCTION

This article discusses the causes of irretrievable losses in the oil extraction industry and the conditions for the proper organization of the technological process. In particular, a solvent regeneration technology has been developed, according to which the condensate formed in the reflux condenser is used to purify the steam-gasoline mixture coming from the evaporator to the meal traps, and which are stable water-gasoline emulsions with meal particles . Thus, the system reduces the consumption of hot water, solvent, the duration of the solvent regeneration process, due to this, the cost of the finished product is reduced.
