METHOD FOR SEPARATING OIL AND WATER, METHOD FOR PROCESSING OIL-CONTAINING WATER, METHOD FOR PRODUCING BITUMEN, AND SYSTEM THEREOF

摘要

Provided is a method for separating oil and water with which it is possible to decrease the frequency of clogging. This is a method for separating oil and water that is generated in the in-situ recovery method which produces bitumen (82) from oil sand (1500), by conducting a step of preparing oil-containing water (83, 84) by taking out bitumen (82) from bitumen-mixed fluid (81) that is recovered from the ground, and then subjecting the oil-containing water (84) to membrane distillation using a distillation membrane member (10) composed of a porous membrane (20).
