Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a nonionic-anionic water purification agent and its preparation and application. Background Technology
[0002] Oily wastewater from oilfields is a major source of environmental pollution. Many oilfields in my country have entered the mid-to-late stages of extraction, with extracted crude oil containing 80%–90% water. Polymer flooding is increasingly widely used, leading to a significant increase in oily wastewater. This wastewater originates from crude oil dehydration stations. Because the wastewater comes from different formations and is generated during various processes, its composition is highly complex, including oil, suspended solids, chemicals, and polymers used for oil displacement. The primary treatment method for oilfield wastewater is reinjection. If untreated wastewater is directly injected into the formation, incompatibility between the wastewater and the injection layer will lead to more sedimentation, clogging formation fractures, reducing the efficiency of water injection underground, and shortening the service life of injection wells.
[0003] Although many domestic oilfields have continuously improved their extraction processes and developed new wastewater treatment technologies in recent years, the ever-increasing wastewater production cannot wait for the development of new processes and technologies. Currently, many domestic oilfields still treat wastewater using chemical and physical methods. In actual production, these two methods are often used in combination. Physical methods do not cause secondary pollution to the environment, but treating wastewater using only physical methods is time-consuming, requires a large space, and is difficult to achieve wastewater treatment standards within a limited time. Chemical methods mainly involve injecting chemical agents into wastewater pipes or wastewater treatment equipment. Because the water quality and treatment equipment vary from oilfield to oilfield, the added water-cleaning agents and other chemical agents differ. By adding water-cleaning agents, reverse demulsification and flocculation are achieved, resulting in water purification. Chemical methods for wastewater treatment are more flexible; the formulation and dosage of the agents can be adjusted according to the volume of wastewater and the complexity of the water quality. Generally, oilfields use a combination of physical and chemical methods to treat wastewater. By combining these two methods, large quantities of oilfield wastewater can be treated quickly.
[0004] Due to the long history of crude oil extraction in my country, the development technology of oilfield injection agents is quite mature. However, the problem of treating oily wastewater, which is difficult to handle due to constantly changing water quality, has not been well resolved. Currently, cationic water treatment agents are the main type used in oilfields, but nonionic water treatment agents are gradually being applied, especially in offshore oilfield wastewater treatment. Cationic water treatment agents have certain limitations, so the synthesis of nonionic-anionic water treatment agents is of great significance for oilfield wastewater treatment.

16. The method according to any one of claims 2-8 and 11-15, characterized in that: include: (1) Stir p-tert-butylphenol and polyethylene polyamine and heat to 35°C. Slowly add 40% formaldehyde solution and keep warm for 35-45 minutes. Add xylene and heat to 100°C to start reflux dehydration. Keep the temperature at 100-110°C. After 2 hours, when the water is completely removed, gradually raise the temperature to 150°C. At this time, the transparency of the solution gradually increases. Xylene begins to evaporate at 150°C. Keep the temperature at 150-195°C. After 1 hour, the xylene is completely removed. Continue to keep the temperature at 150°C for 1 hour. After the reaction is completed, cool down to 120°C and discharge the material to obtain the initiator. (2) The initiator and catalyst are put into the reactor and sealed. The air in the reactor is replaced by nitrogen purging and the reactor is evacuated to a vacuum. The feed valve is opened and the designed amount of ethylene oxide (EO) is slowly introduced. The pressure gauge reading is controlled between 0.19 and 0.21 MPa. After the ethylene oxide is added, the feed valve is closed. When the pressure gauge reading of the reactor decreases to negative pressure, the reaction ends. The reactor is cooled down and discharged to obtain intermediate product 1. (3) Add intermediate product 1 and catalyst into the reactor and seal it. Use nitrogen to purge the air in the reactor and draw it to a vacuum. Open the feed valve and slowly introduce the designed amount of propylene oxide (PO). Control the pressure gauge reading between 0.19 and 0.21 MPa. After the propylene oxide is added, close the feed valve. When the pressure gauge reading of the reactor decreases to negative pressure, the reaction ends and intermediate product 2 is obtained. (4) Add intermediate product 2 and catalyst into the reactor and seal it. Use nitrogen to purge the air in the reactor and draw it to a vacuum. Open the feed valve and slowly introduce the designed amount of ethylene oxide. Control the pressure gauge reading between 0.19 and 0.21 MPa. After the ethylene oxide is added, close the feed valve. When the pressure gauge reading in the reactor decreases to negative pressure, the reaction ends and polyether A is obtained. (5) Dissolve polyether A in 70% methanol solution, stir and heat to 50~60℃, add potassium hydroxide solution, stir for 20min, then heat to 60~80℃, slowly add 30% sodium chloroacetate solution, control the addition time to 2~3h, until the 30% sodium chloroacetate solution is completely added, keep the temperature at 60~80℃, react for 8h, and obtain polyether water-soluble agent.
