[0024] How to use this utility model: When the device is put into operation, production water enters the inlet chamber inside the tank body 1 through inlet 501 and return outlet 502. Under the action of gravity, impurities gradually settle at the bottom of the inlet chamber, while oil in the water is present at the top of the inlet chamber. The production water enters the drain chamber through inlet chamber baffle 3 and drain chamber baffle 4. The drain chamber level gauge assembly 15 and inlet chamber level gauge assembly 16 maintain the liquid level in the inlet chamber at the area of ​​the skimming trough 6. At this time, the oil in the water mainly accumulates in the skimming trough 6. By controlling the opening of the regulating valve of the sludge pipeline connected to the skimming trough 6, the oil can be continuously discharged. Due to the presence of inlet chamber baffle 5, the oil in the inlet chamber is basically kept in the upper part of the inlet chamber. The medium passing through inlet chamber baffle 5 is mainly water. The oil content in the inlet chamber is higher than that in the drain chamber, so the inlet chamber skimming trough 601 plays the main role in skimming oil. The presence of the drainage chamber baffle 4 prevents most impurities from the inlet chamber from entering the drainage chamber. Any impurities that do enter the drainage chamber accumulate at the bottom of the tank due to gravity. By periodically using the sand separator 10 to remove sand from both chambers, especially the inlet chamber, the accumulated impurities can be periodically discharged from the tank body 1 through the sand discharge ports 505 and 506. Similarly, due to the presence of the inlet chamber baffle 3 and the inlet chamber skimming trough 601, only a small amount of oil in the water enters the drainage chamber, and the oil entering the drainage chamber can be discharged through the pipeline on the skimming trough 602. After the above treatment, qualified production water can be discharged through the drain port 504 and enter the next processing stage. If the liquid level is too high during operation, because the tank is connected to an overflow port 503, the inlet of which is located at the bottom of the tank. The overflow pipe outside the tank has an upward U-shaped bend, its height slightly higher than the tank's high liquid level. If a control system error causes the liquid level inside the tank to rise, the production water exceeding the control height will overflow through the overflow port to a designated area, preventing overflow. Since the overflow port is located at the bottom of the tank and within the drainage chamber, the oil content in the overflow water is minimized. Gas accumulated inside the tank enters the production system's venting pipeline through the venting assembly 12. The drainage chamber level gauge assembly 15 and the inlet chamber level gauge assembly 16 transmit the liquid level signal to the central control unit for monitoring. If personnel need to enter the tank for maintenance during use, the tank can be emptied of production water, and maintenance can be performed through two manholes: the drainage chamber manhole 7 and the inlet chamber manhole 9, respectively.

[0025] Except for the desander 10 and the anti-corrosion zinc block 11, the interior of the tank body 1 is coated with ceramic paint. This coating process effectively protects the internal materials from direct contact with the production water, preventing corrosion and perforation, which would otherwise reduce functionality. Furthermore, even if some of the paint inside is damaged by impact, the anti-corrosion zinc block 11 welded inside the tank, utilizing cathodic protection with sacrificial anodes, can reduce corrosion of the carbon steel inside the tank. The desander assembly is made of stainless steel, achieving corrosion resistance without the need for a coating.
