Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for removing oil from particulate matter, particularly inorganic particulate matter, by mixing an aqueous slurry of the particulate matter with high pressure water streams.
- Hazardous railway ballast also contains significant levels of oil contamination, as does the waste extracted from oil interceptors that are used, for example, on garage forecourts.
- Current procedures for removing oil from particulate matter include the use of centrifuges, in which oil is forced from the solids by rotation of the centrifuge. The resulting water and oil phase is then further treated, either in a centrifuge or in a separate system. Chemicals are often used in this process to act as de-emulsifiers; however most such procedures normally result in residual oil levels of up to 15% in the solid phase.
- a second common separation method is the use of re- circulating hydrocyclones , in which contaminated solids are collected in an accumulator before being jet pumped into a cyclone, sometimes with the addition of secondary water.
- Such procedures are normally batch processes with the solids being re-circulated 6 or 7 times through the cyclone. Under optimal conditions this procedure can achieve residual oil contamination levels of less than 3% in the solids.
- a third treatment method is the use of a Denver Attrition cell, in which oil contaminated solids are slurried with water before being sheared by the use of a very fast agitator impeller in a confined tank.
- a process for oil separation using a Denver attrition cell is disclosed in US5047083. This procedure can achieve residual oil contamination of less than 5% in the solids, but large amounts of energy are required to drive the impeller at sufficient speeds, and high equipment attrition rates, for example due to damage to the impeller, are normally encountered.
- the present invention provides a process for removing oil from particulate matter comprising mixing an aqueous slurry of the particulate matter with one or more streams of water applied at a pressure of from 0.5 to 100 Mpa, wherein the one or more high pressure water streams expand adiabatically when mixed with the aqueous slurry.
- the process of the present invention is suitable for removing oil from all kinds of particulate matter, particularly hard particulate matter, more particularly hard, inorganic particulate matter.
- Suitable particulate matter that may be treated by the process of the present invention includes oil contaminated mill scale, tank bottoms, sand, silt, railway ballast, sludge, glass or mixtures thereof.
- Suitable particulate matter includes particles of from 0.01 to 75mm.
- particulate matter In general there is no limit to the amount of oil that may be removed from particulate matter by the process of the present invention, however it is particularly convenient for treating particulate matter comprising from 0.1 to 40% by weight, preferably from 0.2 to 30% by weight, oil.
- the process of the present invention is suitable for removing all types of oils from particulate matter, particularly fuel oil, diesel and heavy and light crude, as well as lighter oils such as edible or cutting oils.
- the oil contaminated particulate matter should be in the form of an aqueous slurry before mixing with the one or more streams of high pressure water. Depending upon the source of the particulate matter, it may already be in the form of a slurry. If it is not in the form of an aqueous slurry, or if further water is required, the oil contaminated particulate matter may be slurrified with water using any conventional techniques and equipment, for example a cutting pump or a tank plus agitator. For the process of the present invention it is preferred that the aqueous slurry comprises 3 to 35% by volume particulate matter, more preferably 5 to 30% by volume, even more preferably 10 to 25% by volume, for example 18 to 25% by volume .
- the oil On mixing of the aqueous slurry of the oil contaminated particulate matter with the one or more high pressure water streams the oil is removed from the surface or interstitial pores of the particulate matter principally by attrition and is deposited in the aqueous phase.
- the particulate matter may then be separated from the aqueous phase using any conventional procedures. Examples of procedures for separation of the particulate matter and the aqueous phase include gravimetric separation in a modified density separator
- the particulate matter may be further rinsed with water to remove any residual oil contamination depending upon the final limits required.
- the aqueous phase may be passed to an oil water separator where the oil is recovered and the water may be further treated to remove residual oil contamination.
- Any conventional procedures may be used for the oil -water separation and further treatment of the water.
- An example of further treatment of the water following contentional oil separation is the use of a polish system, comprising a de-silter cyclone bank, and the passage of the water through absorption media chosen to remove dissolved and emulsified oils.
- the water After removal of the oil, the water may be recycled for use in slurrying further oil contaminated particulate matter, or may be safely discharged to the environment .
- the particulate matter will preferably comprise less than 10,000 ppm by weight of oil, more preferably 1,000 ppm by weight or less, most preferably 200ppm by weight or less.
- the one or more streams of water are applied to the aqueous slurry of the particulate matter at pressures of from 0.5 to 100 MPa, preferably from 10 to 60 MPa, more preferably from 15 to 22.5 MPa.
- the one or more high pressure water streams expand adiabatically when mixed with the aqueous slurry of particulate matter. Adiabatic expansion is a rapid expansion which occurs without energy being converted into heat.
- the total energy of the high pressure water is applied to the aqueous slurry of particulate matter, producing high levels of shear and speeding the removal of contaminating oil from the surface and interstitial pores of the particulate matter.
- the process of the present invention principally removes oil from the surface or interstitial pores of the particulate matter by attrition, rather than by causing the oil to be dissolved, and it is therefore not necessary for heated water to be used when carrying out the invention. It is also unnecessary for air to be added to improve mixing when the one or more high pressure water streams are sprayed onto the aqueous slurry.
- the high pressure water is preferably mixed with the aqueous slurry of the particulate matter in from 6 to 18 streams, for example 12 streams.
- the high pressure streams are preferably applied to the aqueous slurry through nozzles having a total spraying surface area of from 0.2 to 10mm 2 , more preferably from 0.2 to 8mm 2 , for example 6 to 8mm 2 .
- any means of mixing the one or more streams of high pressure water with the aqueous slurry of particulate matter may be used, however it is preferred that this mixing is carried out as the aqueous slurry is passed through a pipe.
- Suitable pipes will have diameters of from 100 to 250mm, depending upon the volume of slurry that is to be treated and the average particle size of the oil contaminated particles. Typical tube diameters are 100, 150 and 250mm.
- Pipes for use in the present invention may be made of any suitable materials, as long as they are strong enough to contain the pressures involved in the process and to resist abrasion caused by the mixing of the high pressure water streams and aqueous slurry of the particulate matter. Suitable materials include steel, or Duplex steel if the slurry comprises saline water. Any thickness of pipe may be used, for example from 3mm to 35mm.
- the aqueous slurry of particulate matter is preferably conveyed to the location at which it is mixed with the one or more high pressure water streams by pumping, or by gravity feed when the oil contaminated particulate matter is railway ballast.
- Typical flow rates of the aqueous slurry of particulate matter through pipes when carrying out the present invention are from 75 to 200m 3 per hour.
- preferred flow rates are 100 to 120m 3 per hour; for diameters of 150mm, preferred flow rates are 120 to 150m 3 per hour, and for diameters of 250mm, preferred flow rates are from 100 to 160m 3 per hour.
- the one or more high pressure water streams are preferably projected into the pipe in the direction of flow of the aqueous slurry and at an angle of 22 to 40 degrees to the axis of the pipe, more preferably at an angle of from 25 to 35 degrees to the axis of the pipe, for example at 30 degrees to the axis of the pipe.
- each of the one or more high pressure water streams may be projected into the pipe in the direction of flow of the aqueous slurry through nozzles having three separate sub-nozzles, the central sub-nozzle projecting a stream at an angle of from 22 to 40 degrees ⁇ more preferably 25 to 35 degrees, for example 30 degrees) to the axis of the pipe; and the other two nozzles projecting streams at an angle of from 5 to 15 degrees and from 45 to 60 degrees (for example, 10 degrees and 50 degrees) to the axis of the pipe respectively.
- the one or more high pressure water streams are each projected into the pipe in the direction of flow of the aqueous slurry as 3 separate sub- streams at angles of 10, 30 and 50 degrees to the axis of the pipe respectively.
- the streams of high pressure water are preferably all projected into the pipe from nozzles arranged concentrically around the perimeter of the pipe.
- a typical flow rate for the high pressure water used in the present invention is 8m 3 an hour.
- the present invention is carried out by the mixing of the one or more high pressure water streams and the aqueous slurry of particulate matter in a pipe, it is preferred that at least a portion of the pipe is lined after the point of injection of water with a sacrificial liner or protective sleeve, which may be made of a plastic material, for example HDPE.
- the liner or protective sleeve may be from 1 to 10mm thick, more preferably from 3 to 8mm, for example 6mm, and may line any length of the pipe, preferably from 100 to 200mm of the length of the pipe, beginning in the area where mixing occurs (for example, 150mm of the length of the pipe) .
- Surfactants and/or chelating agents may be added to the aqueous slurry of particulate matter before it is mixed with the one or more streams of high pressure water in the present invention. These additional materials may be added either before or after the oil contaminated particulate matter is slurrified, or may be added with the water used to form the slurry. Any conventional surfactants and chelating agents may be used, depending upon the nature of the particulate matter and the type and amount of contamination.
- Surfactants that may be used in the present invention include cationic, non- ionic and anionic surfactants, including alkyloxylates which do not decompose in the presence of phosphoric, hydrochloric or citric acids, and alkyloxylates with a hydrophilic- lipophilic balance in the range of HLB 7-9, for example Emulan P and Purflac.
