Abstract

In the process of using hydrocarbon fractions containing a large amount of nitrogenous compounds, nitrogen oxides are released into the atmospheric air, which have a negative impact on the environment and human health. The traditional cleaning method is treatment with a 25% sulfuric acid solution and subsequent hydrotreating. However, this process becomes disadvantageous due to its inability to achieve ultra-low concentrations of nitrogen-containing compounds (<10 ppm). Extraction using non-toxic and environmentally friendly water-soluble polymers is a promising alternative compared to traditional methods. This work presents the dependence of the interphase distribution of pyridine on the composition of extraction systems based on water-soluble polymers. According to the results of the study, it was found that polyethylene glycol-400, polypropylene glycol-425 and methyl ether of polyethylene glycol-350 exhibit effective extraction properties in relation to pyridine and extract it by 90.95%, 90.33% and 87.82% in one extraction stage, respectively. It was also found that the use of two-phase aqueous systems based on water-soluble polymers in the process of extracting pyridine is promising.
