Technology for Removing Organic Chloride from Crude Oil

With the crude oil quality from the second or the third oil production becoming increasingly poor,the organic chlorides become increasingly higher.The electrostatic desalting process can only remove inorganic chlorine ions instead of organic chlorides. In crude distillation unit,the organic chloride will hydrolyze into chlorine ions under the effect of high temperature and steam and form corrosive H₂S that will corrode the equipment and poison the catalysts in the downstream process units.

Adding our organic chloride transfer agent into the crude oil based upon crude oil properties can remove organic chlorides from crude oil. This organic chloride removal technology is simple in process. When organic chloride transfer agent is added before the electrostatic desalting unit,over 80% of organic chloride can be removed.When it is added at a dosage of 10 ppm to 50 ppm,the organic chloride in crude oil can be reduced to 2 ppm to zero.The increase of Cl-in the overhead of crude distillation unit is the indication of effectiveness of organic chloride transfer process.

Our crude oil organic chloride transfer agent has been used in many oil refineries at home and abroad. The removal efficiency of organic chloride is high and the operation is simple. Our products are well received by our customers.
