Abstract
This study aims to develop an efficient recovery solution for waste transformer insulating oil, addressing the challenge of incomplete separation of residual oil in existing recovery technologies. A multi-module integrated system is constructed, comprising a waste oil extraction module, a residual oil vaporization module, an exhaust gas treatment module, and an online monitoring module. By combining steps such as oil extraction, residual oil absorption, hot air circulation heating, and negative-pressure low-frequency induction heating, the complete recovery of waste oil is achieved. The recovery process incorporates oil–gas saturation monitoring and an oil–gas precipitation assessment algorithm based on neural networks to enable intelligent control, ensuring thorough recovery of residual oil from transformers. The proposed system and methods demonstrate excellent recovery efficiency and environmental protection effects during the pre-treatment of waste transformer oil. Experiments conducted on 50 discarded transformers showed an average recovery efficiency exceeding 99%, with 49 transformers exhibiting no damage to core components after the recovery process. From a theoretical perspective, this research introduces monitoring and control methods for transformer insulating oil recovery, providing significant support for the green processing and reutilization of discarded transformer insulating oil. From an application value perspective, the recovery process helps reduce environmental pollution and facilitates the disassembly of transformers. This enables better analysis of transformer operating characteristics, thereby enhancing the reliability and safety of power systems.
