Abstract

Background Artificial light sources allow using the visible wavelength range for the destruction of water-oil (W/O) emulsion, and on this basis, to develop environmentally friendly technologies of dehydration of crude oil emulsion and operation of oil and gas fields in the last stages of field development. In this article for the first time it is developed a method for monitoring the impact of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) doses to the water-oil emulsions. The efficiency of the destruction of water-oil emulsion, available sources of electromagnetic emission in the visible wavelength range. Aims and Objectives The choice of the radiation source in the visible wavelength range for breaking water-oil emulsions. The development ofelectromagnetic radiation control method of exposure to water-oil emulsion in order to break the emulsion. Methods The bolometric dose monitoring is used for the first time as the impact of electromagnetic emission (or radiation, EMR) on the water-oil emulsions. Results 1. Impact on samples of W/O by controlled dose of EMR in the visible part of the optical wavelength range increases the efficiency of the destruction of water-oil emulsion. 2. The most optimal of the investigated sources of electromagnetic radiation for the purpose of destruction of oil emulsion is RGB white light source with radiation frequencies in the range (4,0…7,5) · 10 14 Hz. The effectiveness of this type of EMR is more than twice higher than the monochromatic EMR sources of visible optical range. 3. Destruction efficiency of water-oil emulsions under the blue component of EMR is compared with the efficiency of the destructive actions of monochrome green or red monochromatic component of EMR.
