Abstract
Microwave technology was introduced for removing vanadium from crude oil. This article discusses the effect of the microwave on removing vanadium from Iranian and Shengli crude oil. We investigated the impact of the microwave time, initial temperature, and microwave power on removing vanadium from crude oil. The optimal conditions of vanadium removal from Iranian and Shengli crude oil were as follows: (a) microwave power was 350 W, (b) microwave time was 30 min, and (c) initial temperature had little influence on the removal efficiencies of vanadium. Under these conditions, the removal rates of vanadium from Iranian and Shengli crude oil were 92.00% and 88.00%, respectively.
