“…The co-surfactant consists of a short-chain alcohol, such as butan-1-ol, used to act directly on the packaging factor and its function is to reduce the repulsion of the polar "heads" of the surfactants, stabilizing the micelle (Castro Dantas et al, 2017;Garnica et al, 2020;Curbelo et al, 2021). Microemulsions differ from conventional emulsions because they allow the stabilization of immiscible, thermodynamically stable, translucent, isotropic mixtures and have much smaller structural units (Gurgel, 2004;Gradzielski, 2008;Soares, 2011;Viana et al, 2015;Castro Dantas et al, 2019). According to Rossi et al, (2006), Castro Dantas et al (2017 and Curbelo et al (2021), in the microemulsion, with ionic aggregates, the phases are organized similarly to the emulsion.…”

“…The Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) process using ASP (Alkali-Surfactant-Polimer) technology consists of injecting banks, together or separately, of an aqueous solution containing an alkaline agent, a surfactant and a polymer. The method was developed in the early 1980s, due to the good synergy between the three chemical agents, depending on the petrophysical, rheological properties, and the methodology of the procedure adopted, and has been used to recover residual oil (Borges et al, 2007;Viana et al, 2015;Cheng et al, 2018). The process seeks to reduce capillary forces, improve displacement efficiency, increase the contact area between fluids and control the mobility ratio.…”

“…The process seeks to reduce capillary forces, improve displacement efficiency, increase the contact area between fluids and control the mobility ratio. According to the literature, the increase in the recovery factor (OOIP divided by incremental oil) can reach more than 20% (Chen et al, 2012;Volokitin et al, 2012;Humpphry at al., 2013;Sharma et al, 2015;Aitkulov et al, 2018;Al-Murayri et al, 2017;Viana et al, 2015;Zhong et al, 2018).…”

“…The polymer bank has the objective of forming a uniform advancing front, to increase the sweeping efficiency. The water bank is used as a displacement fluid (Sharma et al, 2015;Viana et al, 2015). However, in the literature, there is no rule as far as establishing the order of injection of the respective banks, making it possible to insert a lower concentration polymer post bank to protect the main polymer bank from possible incompatibility.…”

Fluids in terms of rheological behavior can be classified into Newtonians and non-Newtonians. Newtonians are fluids that have unique and absolute viscosities, because the ratio between shear stress and shear rate is constant. In the oil industry, most fluids, such as microemulsions, oil and polymeric solutions, do not exhibit Newtonian behavior. To understand the behavior of chemical fluids, it is necessary to analyze some parameters to interpret their properties and applicability. In this context, the present work aims to obtain and characterize microemulsion systems containing Alkali, Surfactant, and Polymer, and verify their applicability in advanced oil recovery. Thus, we obtained five microemulsion systems consisting of saponified coconut oil (surfactant), Butan-1-ol (co-surfactant), kerosene (oil phase), Na2CO3 (alkali), water and different percentages of the polymer. The systems were characterized by analyzes of particle diameter, surface tension, viscosity and rheological behavior using mathematical models. Droplet sizes showed characteristic values of micellar aggregates. Surface tension presented a slight elevation when the percentage of polymer in the microemulsion increased. Through the rheological study, it was possible to observe that experimental values were better adjusted to the Ostwald-de Waele “power-law” model. As the percentage of polymer in the system increased, we calculated the apparent viscosity of the systems and observed an increasing change in viscosity values, a result of great interest to enhanced oil recovery studies.

“…Diferentes tipos de tratamentos foram sugeridos: Shahi et al (2016) Quadros et al (2016), a borra como estimulante para plantações, porém com ressalvas de contaminação. Outros trabalhos também sugerem potenciais soluções para esse problema (THANGALAZHY-GOPAKUMAR et al, 2015;PRAKASH et al, 2015;VIANA et al, 2015; RADFARNIA; KHULBE; LITTLE, 2015; GUOLIN; TINGTING; MINGMING, 2016; HU; LI; HOU, 2015; LI; CHAMPAGNE; ANDERSON, 2015). A borra oleosa traz dificuldades até para as aplicações rústicas, como seu uso em fornos rotativos de clínquer na indústria de cimento para reduzir os custos de pro-dução relacionados ao gasto energético.…”

O resíduo mais amplo do refino do petróleo é a borra oleosa, que pode ser lavada para se tornar um combustível, enquanto a água ácida é conduzida para tratamento convencional. Porém, muitos componentes tóxicos estão nesse resíduo, destacando a necessidade de tratamentos mais rigorosos. Assim, este estudo utilizou e otimizou a ozonização (maximizando a redução de demanda química de oxigênio e minimizando o custo) para o tratamento. Nesse processo, a água usada para lavar a borra foi submetida ao contato prolongado com ozônio em um reator. Por meio da aplicação de design of experiments e metodologia de superfície de resposta, modelos foram gerados para a redução da demanda química de oxigênio e do custo. Normal boundary intersection otimizou os modelos. Minitab gerou e desenvolveu os modelos. O estado ideal para a redução da demanda química de oxigênio foi de 51,1% e R$ 151,5.kW-1 .h-1 para o custo nas condições operacionais de pH, % de potência e tempo iguais a 7; 61,5%; e 45 minutos, respectivamente. Palavras-chave: tratamento de efluentes; oxidação avançada; design of experiments.

Co‐Combustion of Oil Sludge Char and Brown Coal in a Continuous Fluidized‐Bed Combustor

Ing. Joachim Werther on the occasion of his 80th birthdayFor developing technologies for innocent disposal of/energy recovery from high-ash oil sludge char (OSC), it was continuously combusted in a 10 kg h -1 fluidized-bed combustor. Addition of brown coal (BC) improved its combustion, but excessive BC was prone to cause slagging. Fine coke particles in OSC and volatiles in BC led to staged temperatures along the fluidized bed through air-staging co-combustion, enabling excellent combustion performance as well as efficient NO x reduction, especially when coupled with selective non-catalytic reduction. Thus, there is a potential to cleanly recover energy from OSC by its co-combustion with BC.
