Hydrocyclones as a Technology for Separating Oil, Water, and Solids. by Dr. Franklin Foster, 2006 [note: this article made possible by support and funding from the Petroleum Society of CIM, Lloydminster Section]. The Heavy Oil industry in the Lloydminster area sometimes seems to have been one long struggle to separate oil from water and solids.
Separation of oil and water can be achieved more efficiently by use of cyclonic technology compared to conventional gravity separators. The InLine DeWaterer is a compact cyclonic unit for ultra-compact separation of oil and water.
the performance of the oil/water separation by hydrocyclones. Among these factors are the geometry and processing capacity of the hydrocyclones, oil droplet size, density difference between the phases, pressure drops, and temperature fluctuation. This paper aims to analyze the effects of inlet fluid mixture temperature and oil droplet size on ...
Hydrocyclone based process systems are the most cost-effective solution for produced water treatment clean up. Located directly downstream on the water outlet of the production separator and upstream of the water level control valve, these systems operate in a proportional “pressure ratio” control manner.

Oil-in-water concentrations were measured in the hydrocyclone inlet and underflow, respectively. Samples were collected in bottles directly from the sampling valve. Air bubbles of larger diameter were removed from water in air–liquid separation pot because …
The oil is removed through a small-diameter reject port located in the head of the hydrocyclone separator. Clean water is removed through the downstream outlet. Static hydrocyclone separator require a minimum pressure of 100 psi to produce the required velocities.

OLI Systems, Inc. Downhole Oil/Water Separation 1 ... Hydrocyclone Oil/Water Separator The largest volume waste stream associated with oil and gas production is produced water. Water to gas ratios of 10 to 1 are common and treatment followed by disposal of produced water leads to …
An important problem in the oil industry is the treatment of produced water, especially in the case of offshore oil production where space and floor area, needed for the separation equipment, are extremely costly. Increased production of water occurs when an oil field matures, and the availability of efficient and cost-effective techniques partly determines the …
A novel hydrocyclone with guide vanes, named as axial hydrocyclone (AHC), is designed to tackle the problem of oil–water separation faced by most mature oilfields. Optimal design of the AHC is carried out by using numerical methods.
Liquid/Liquid Hydrocyclone More Than a Water Treatment Company, an Established Leader in Oil/Water Separation As a world leader in meeting your water treatment needs, Siemens Water Solutions offers the most complete line of oil/water separation equipment available from a single source.

InLine HydroCyclone Compared to conventional solutions this unique, patented axial flow hydrocyclone is proven to enable high separation efficiency and low pressure drop. It is an ideal tool for separation oil from water to low levels.
An oil water separation hydrocyclone is a device designed to separate oil from water by the use of a strong vortex. These separators are passive (no moving parts) and resemble long tapered pipes. These separators are passive (no moving parts) and resemble long tapered pipes.
The oil is removed through a small-diameter reject port located in the head of the hydrocyclone separator. Clean water is removed through the downstream outlet. Static hydrocyclone separator require a minimum pressure of 100 psi to produce the required velocities.
In order to improve the separation efficiency of dispersed oil from water by hydrocyclones, a new process of utilizing air bubbles has been developed to enhance the separation efficiency.
Hydrocyclones Deoiling D.01 Introduction Deoiler Hydrocyclones were developed for the offshore oil industry in the 1980’s and are established as the primary equipment used for recovery of oil from Produced Water streams. Deoiler Hydrocyclones exhibit the following benefits: • Compact design,
The V-inline Separator is superior to hydrocyclones and centrifuges and outperforms both in key oil/water separator applications. A hydrocyclone's inherent limitation is its requirement for a pressure drop to conduct separation.
The water phase exits the deoiling hydrocyclone as underflow. The core of the light phase, which is oil, moves axially up the cyclone, due to back pressure …
Minimum water/oil ratio - The DOWS system should be designed so that some water is produced with the oil. Since the hydrocyclone separator is not efficient, it is more desirable to produce some water to the surface than to try to fine tune the system and run the risk that some oil …
The hydrocyclones are simply installed on the water outlet of the three-phase separator with the interface-level control valve downstream of the hydrocyclones on their water outlet. This control valve normally will control the flow rate through the deoiler in a proportional control mode.
the downhole oil-water separation hydrocyclone (DOWSH) is designed to analyze the effect of flowrate, rotating speed and split ratio on separation efficiency and pressure drop, The primary and secondary factors of operation parameters have
Plant Intake Water Treatment Applications: Krebs ® Hydrocyclones and DeSanders are commonly used to remove sand from well water, rivers, lakes or the ocean. Removing the sand prior to filtration and settlers reduces maintenance and chemical usage in downstream equipment.

Hydrocyclones and Separators™ are selected based on several parameters, including volume of flow, tons per hour of recoverable material and cut-point required. Larger units process higher volumes; however, the larger the Hydrocyclone, the coarser the cut.
Wet oil with the remaining emulsified water flows to the dehydrators and desalters, where it is washed with less-saline wash water to remove the emulsified water from wet oil and produce dry oil ...
The purpose of the VWS STREAMLINER™ de-oiling hydrocyclone is to separate free oil from produced water prior to discharge or injection. Usually situated after the primary separators, de-oiling hydrocyclones are normally regarded as the first stage in the treatment process.
