The invention discloses a paraffin removal device for oil wells. The paraffin removal device comprises a
barrel and an outer container which is sheathed in the
barrel in a clearance manner; an inner container is sheathed in the outer container in a clearance manner; a front seal head baffle and a rear seal head baffle, which are fixedly connected with the end parts of the outer container and the inner container in a sealing manner, are fixed at the front end and the back end of the
barrel; a through hole, through which a
spray nozzle of a burner is extended into the inner container, is arranged on the front seal head baffle; an outer container gap is arranged at the rear end of the outer container; an inner container gap is arranged at the rear end of the inner container; the outer container gap and the inner container gap form a first gap; an inner guiding
pipe is arranged between the outer container and the inner container; an outer guiding
pipe, which is communicated with the inner guiding
pipe at the first gap, is arranged between the barrel and the outer container; and a
chimney, which is communicated with a gap between the barrel and the outer container, is arranged on the barrel. For the paraffin removal device, the inner guiding pipe is heated by using heat generated by high-temperature fire, simultaneously, the outer guiding pipe is directly heated by using heat generated by a
flue gas, thereby the heat of the high-temperature fire is fully used, and simultaneously the heat of
flue gas is effectively used. The paraffin removal device has
high heat efficiency and compact structure.
