This paper discusses the application of plant-wide control philosophy to enhance the performance and capacity of the Produced Water Treatment (PWT) in offshore oil & gas production processes. Different from most existing facilityor material-based PWT innovation methods, the objective of this work is to propose a software-based breakthrough PWT innovation solution. This is achieved through integ...

The design and optimization of hydrocyclones using CFD techniques are gaining popularity and the key to a successful simulation lies with the accurate description of the high turbulent swirling behavior of the flow. This paper presents a detailed co...

Partially Lateritised Khondalite (PLK) rocks are the waste materials generated as a result of mining of bauxite. The major discolouring elemental impurity in the PLK is iron oxides, which render it unsuitable for its use as a refractory material. The iron can be removed by suitable beneficiation methods. The main aim of this present investigation is to prepare a value added material from the mi...

Aiming at the separation of mud and sand in natural gas hydrate, for designed built-in twisted tape hydrocyclone, numerical simulation method was used to study effects different types operating conditions on internal flow field efficiency, influence hydrate particle size distribution. The research results show that has same swirling direction as which is beneficial improving intensity, ability ...

A hydrocyclone is a centrifugal classifier that separates particles by size using force. Applications for hydrocyclones are incredibly varied. It used to separate solids from liquids, liquids and gases liquids. easy install use, simple, inexpensive, low maintenance. serves as the brain of mineral processing plant process water in important sectors textile, petroleum, chemical, paper, agricultur...

Outline: This paper describes application of rough set theory, on the analysis of hydrocyclone operation. In this manner, using Self Organizing Map (SOM) as preprocessing step, best crisp granules of data are obtained. Then, using a combining of SOM and rough set theory (RST)-called SORST-, the dominant rules on the information table, obtained from laboratory tests, are extracted. Based on thes...
