PROCESS USING BISPHENOL A AMINATED AND ALKOXYLATED DERIVATIVE AS DEMULSIFIER

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of destabilizing a crude oil-water emulsion that includes adding to the crude oil-water emulsion a demulsifier obtained by an alkoxylation reaction of an aminated epoxy adduct, the aminated epoxy adduct obtained by a reaction of an epoxy resin and an amine. In one or more embodiments, the alkoxylation reaction includes reacting C2 to C4 alkylene oxides with the aminated epoxy adduct.
