AI Technical Summary
Existing chemical demulsifiers suffer from high energy consumption in oil collection, substandard wastewater treatment, and difficulty in achieving high efficiency and universal applicability. The effectiveness of microbial demulsifiers in practical systems needs to be improved.
A mixture of Pseudomonas aeruginosa fermentation broth, trimethylolpropane polyether, and epoxy polyether was used as a biochemical composite demulsifier. Hydrophobic aids such as benzene and toluene were added, and fermentation conditions were optimized to improve the demulsification effect.
It achieves highly efficient dehydration with a dehydration rate of over 95%, a clear oil-water interface, low cost, and less than 120 ppm oil content in water, making it suitable for the petrochemical industry.
