The invention relates to the technical field of
crude oil dehydration methods and devices, in particular to a divergent coalescence double-rectifying-plate efficient
dehydration device and method.
Crude oil flows rightwards in a coalescence area in an S shape, namely S-shaped divergent flow channels are formed among coalescence balls distributed at intervals in a matrix mode in the fluid flowing direction, and when the
crude oil flows through the S-shaped divergent flow channels, the
crude oil flows through the S-shaped divergent flow channels under the action of
buoyancy, and the crude oil is separated from the coalescence balls. Large oil drops formed by collision gradually float to the top of the coalescence area and then enter the
settling area for
settling separation. According to the divergent coalescence double-rectifying-plate efficient
dehydration device, the S-shaped divergent flow channel is designed, large oil drops formed by collision can gradually float upwards to the top of a coalescence area under the action of
buoyancy, fluid flow is not limited in a fixed flow channel space formed by different
layers of corrugated plates any more, and therefore the
collision probability of the oil drops is greatly increased, and meanwhile, the oil drops are prevented from falling off. Double rectifying plates are designed, the effect of rectifying, energy dissipation and vortex reduction is utilized, disordered flow in a settlement area is eliminated to the maximum extent, and separation and settlement time is shortened.
