Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of demulsifiers, in particular to an oil and gas well demulsifier. Background Art
[0002] Demulsifier is an indispensable chemical auxiliary agent for all oil fields. It undertakes the task of demulsifying and dehydrating crude oil emulsions. With the secondary and tertiary oil recovery in oil fields, the addition of various oil displacement surfactants, polymers and other chemical agents also makes it difficult to quickly demulsify and separate the produced emulsified crude oil. Commonly used demulsifiers may cause the active substances in the demulsifier to be unstable at higher temperatures and fail to fully play their role, thereby affecting the demulsification effect. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a demulsifier that is resistant to high temperatures and can demulsify efficiently. For example, in the document "Synthesis and Performance Evaluation of Cationic Block Polyether Demulsifiers", it is reported that a series of cationic block polyether demulsifiers were synthesized with ethylene glycol, epichlorohydrin, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide as main raw materials, which have good demulsification effects, but the high temperature resistance of the demulsifier has not been improved. The present invention aims to improve the demulsification effect of the demulsifier while making the demulsifier have excellent high temperature resistance. Summary of the invention

[0020] (III) Beneficial technical effects
[0021] The invention obtains an oil and gas well demulsifier by adding silane quaternary phosphonium salt modified polyether, pyridine-modified quaternary ammonium salt modified hydroxyethyl cellulose and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide into a reactor, mixing and stirring.
[0022] The chlorine in 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane reacts with 2-(diphenylphosphino)ethylamine to undergo quaternary phosphonium reaction, and an amino group is introduced to obtain a silane quaternary phosphonium salt. The amino group in the silane quaternary phosphonium salt reacts with the aldehyde group in 2,6-dialdehyde-1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene to undergo a Schiff base synthesis reaction to obtain a silane quaternary phosphonium salt modified initiator. The silane quaternary phosphonium salt modified initiator undergoes a polymerization reaction with propylene oxide and ethylene oxide to obtain a silane quaternary phosphonium salt modified polyether. The amino group in 2-amino-3,5-dibromo-4-methylpyridine and the double bond in 1,3-dimethylacrylate adamantyl undergo Michael addition reaction to obtain intermediate 1, the bromine in intermediate 1 and the tertiary amine in N-(epoxypropyl)-N-phenyl-epoxyethylene methylamine undergo quaternization reaction to obtain a quaternary ammonium salt modified with pyridine, the epoxy group in the quaternary ammonium salt modified with the hydroxyl group in hydroxyethyl cellulose undergo ring-opening reaction to obtain hydroxyethyl cellulose modified with the quaternary ammonium salt modified with pyridine.
[0023] The bond energy of the silicon-oxygen bond in the silane quaternary phosphonium salt modified polyether is relatively high and is not easy to break at high temperatures, thereby maintaining the thermal stability of the demulsifier and improving the high temperature resistance of the demulsifier; the rigid structure of the benzene ring can enhance the rigidity and packing density of the polyether molecular chain, thereby improving the high temperature resistance of the demulsifier, and the conjugated effect formed by the double benzene ring structure of the naphthyl group further improves the thermal stability of the demulsifier; the positive charge contained in the quaternary phosphonium salt and the quaternary ammonium salt interacts with the negative charge on the surface of the emulsion droplets, neutralizes the charge on the surface of the emulsion droplets, thereby destroying the balanced stable charge protection layer of the emulsion droplets, increasing the collision and agglomeration probability between the oil droplets, promoting oil-water separation, and enhancing the demulsification effect of the demulsifier; the polyether has an excellent balance of hydrophilicity and lipophilicity, can quickly penetrate into the interface of the emulsion droplets, destroy the stability of the emulsion, aggregate the oil droplets, thereby achieving oil-water separation and playing a demulsification role; the quaternary ammonium salt modified hydroxyethyl fiber containing pyridine The pyridine group in cellulose has strong polarity and hydrophilicity, which increases the interfacial activity of the demulsifier and makes it easier for the demulsifier to adsorb on the oil-water interface, thereby more effectively destroying the stability of the emulsion and enhancing the demulsification effect; the highly symmetrical rigid structure of adamantane has extremely high thermal stability, which improves the high temperature resistance of the demulsifier; the main chain of hydroxyethyl cellulose is hydrophilic, and by grafting side chains with hydrophobic groups on its hydroxyl groups, the obtained quaternary ammonium salt-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose containing pyridine has amphiphilicity, and through molecular interaction with the surface of the emulsion droplets, the surface tension of the oil-water interface is reduced, and the coalescence and separation of the emulsion droplets are promoted, thereby achieving demulsification. In addition, the quaternary ammonium salt-modified hydroxyethyl cellulose containing pyridine has a large molecular weight and complex structure, occupies a large space on the oil-water interface, forms a stable protective film, prevents the mutual contact and coalescence between the emulsion droplets, thereby enhancing the demulsification effect.
