Thus, a green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifier was obtained.

[0036] Comparative Example 1: The green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifier provided by the present comparative example and its preparation method are substantially the same as those of Example 1, with the main difference being that no hydrophobic chitinous oligosaccharide is added, and only cellulose powder is used as the initiator.

[0037] Comparative Example 2: The green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifier provided by the present comparative example and its preparation method are substantially the same as those of Example 1, with the main difference being that no cellulose powder is added, and only hydrophobic chitinous oligosaccharide is used as the initiator.

[0038] Comparative Example 3: The green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifier provided by the present comparative example and its preparation method are substantially the same as those of Example 1, with the main difference being that propylene glycol is used instead of the biological initiator.

[0039] Comparative Example 4: The green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifier provided by the present comparative example and its preparation method are substantially the same as those of Example 1, with the main difference being that the initiator is synthesized using N, N-dimethylformamide solvent under non-supercritical conditions.

[0040] Performance Test: The green and environmentally friendly polyether demulsifiers prepared in Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 3, and Comparative Example 4 were subjected to performance testing, and the test data are recorded in the following table: Sample Dehydration rate (%) Demulsification time (min) Biodegradation rate (%) Example 1 96 8 89 Example 2 97 7 90 Example 3 98 8 91 Comparative Example 1 78 20 82 Comparative Example 2 80 18 85 Comparative Example 3 70 25 45 Comparative Example 4 75 22 70 In the performance test, the dehydration rate and demulsification speed test: the bottle test method was used to simulate the oilfield working conditions under constant temperature conditions by static separation, and the dehydration rate and oil-water interface clear time were used to evaluate the demulsification efficiency and speed. The biodegradability test: according to the GB / T21856-2008 standard, the carbon dioxide production test was used to determine the amount of carbon dioxide produced by the decomposition of the sample as the sole carbon source by microorganisms, to evaluate the final biodegradation ability within 28 days.

[0041] As can be seen from the data in the table, without the addition of hydrophobized chitinous oligosaccharide, the demulsification process can only rely on the physical coalescence of cellulose powder, which is far less efficient than the synergistic demulsification mechanism of chemical and physical methods, resulting in a longer demulsification time and insufficient dehydration rate. Although the biodegradability is still good, this is mainly due to the biocompatibility of cellulose powder itself. As a high-efficiency biosurfactant, the long-chain alkyl group in the molecular structure of hydrophobized chitinous oligosaccharide enables it to quickly migrate and embed into the oil-water interface layer, reducing the interfacial tension and ultimately tearing the interfacial film.
