Dear all, i would like to design an electrical desalter, any one could suggest me a book or something, or sharing an experience with it? Thanks all for your kind.. warm Regard Precious Mornfavour Process Engineer PT Pertamina Persero RU II
Dear, The way you phrased your original question, it would seem you believe there is an API RP, Standard, or "code" that deals with the design or operation of electrical desalters for crude oil pre-treatment. I say this because I frankly believe there is none - and there hasn't been one. I've worked for companies that designed, built, and sold electrical desalters and I know personally that most of the design employed in each design is proprietary - even though a lot of fabricators have "borrowed" from each other throughout the years since the 1940's - 50's. Every major oil company that deals with crude oil treating has its own methods and preferences as to salt and water removal from crude and has developed its own norms and/or specifications. If you are located in Houston or the USA, then your client should have proprietary ideas or methods on how to apply and operate electrical desalters. If that is not the case, then you have the major, recognized electrical desalter designers and fabricators - such as Natco, and a host of others - that you can consult with on what norms and or specifications to apply in your case. Basically, the electrical desalter is - as has already been stated - an ASME VIII pressure vessel with surge or capacitance volume built into it and an electrical grid to impose an electrostatic field that presumably induces small oil droplets to coalesce and form larger ones, stimulating a separation of the oil and water layers. A proper temperature control of the vessel also helps in carrying out the separation - very much as a field "Heater-Treater" does. I hope this helps you out. regards
