A PROCESS AND SYSTEM FOR ENHANCED SEPARATION OF HYDROCARBON EMULSIONS |
摘要 |
The invention relates to treating a hydrocarbon-comprising emulsion with an aqueous component to form an aqueous component-treated emulsion, and processing the treated emulsion to recover the hydrocarbon. The aqueous component is contacted with the hydrocarbon-comprising emulsion in a manner and proportion so as to promote coalescence of the like phases while minimizing shear, which results in a decreased viscosity of the emulsion and a shift away from the emulsion inversion region toward a water-continuous state. |
