外文标题：Continuous monitoring of residual water content in boiling water-hydrocarbon emulsions during thermomechanical dehydration

外文摘要：Significant waste resources are generated in the form of water-oil emulsions.These emulsions cannot be effectively destroyed on an industrial scale by traditional methods that rely on the settling of the aqueous phase,and therefore,they accumulate in large quantities.Thermomechanical dehydration,based on the evaporation of the water phase,presents a promising process for recycling such waste.However,within the framework of thermomechanical dehydration,the issue of optimizing energy costs for heating raw materials and controlling the water content in the product arises.Standard methods of determining water content under the boiling conditions of highly stable water-hydrocarbon emulsions are charac-terized by low efficiency,as they require constant sampling and the involvement of additional equipment and personnel.Consequently,this presents a challenge in predicting and creating an automated ther-momechanical dehydration process.Therefore,dynamic curves depicting changes in the water content of these emulsions,depending on the temperature of the boiling liquid,have been obtained.It is proposed to determine the rate of temperature increase(dT/dt)of the boiling emulsion for continuous,real-time monitoring of the residual water content and for recording the moment of complete dehydration.Achieving a boiling emulsion temperature of 130-170℃(or higher)and/or the rate of temperature increase from 3.0 to 5.5(or above)indicates the complete dehydration of the emulsion.The proposed method can be implemented in any industrial or laboratory-scale unit for thermomechanical dehydra-tion without significant capital costs.It is based on the use of simple devices consisting of temperature sensors and a computing unit for determining the temperature and rate of heating.
