Non-Miscible Liquid Separation TRIZ Cases
- Polyurethane Recycle Fraction Separation Using CO2-Switched Extraction
CO2 protonates amines in recycled polyurethane fractions, enabling low-reagent separation of aqueous amines from polyether polyols.
- Subsea Centrifugal Separator for Slug Flow Management
Rotating impellers create centrifugal force to separate oil and water, reducing slug flow and vessel weight.
- Modular Weir for Coalescing Separator Maintenance
Detachable modular weir walls resolve permanent attachment constraints in coalescing separators, enabling adjustable fluid levels and reduced downtime.
- Bi-functionalized Ester Polymers for Crude Oil Emulsion Breaking
Triblock alkylene oxide polymers break water-in-oil emulsions, resolving low polydispersity and limited functionality of linear EO/PO copolymers.
- Plate Separator Device with Rotating Coupling Members
Rotating coupling members fix plate spacing in a separator device, reducing assembly labor intensity while increasing effective throughflow surface area.
- Acrylic/Phenolic Coalescing Filter for Ionic Liquid Separation
An acrylic/phenolic resin coalescing filter resolves ultrafine droplet removal challenges by enabling rapid phase separation in hydrocarbon systems.
