Emulsion breaker chemicals are specialized agents designed to break down stable oil-water emulsions, enabling efficient separation of water from oil-based substances. These chemicals are primarily used in industries such as petroleum, wastewater treatment, and food processing, where emulsions form as a result of various operations. Emulsion breakers work by disrupting the bonds that hold oil and water together, making it easier to separate the two components. The products meet stringent standards such as API RP 65 for petroleum operations and SASO 2412 for industrial safety. By effectively separating emulsions, they improve the efficiency of recovery and treatment processes.
Key Features:
- Efficient Separation: Quickly separates oil from water in emulsions.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for petroleum, wastewater, and food industries.
- Environmentally Safe: Many formulations are biodegradable and non-toxic.
- Cost-Effective: Reduces operational costs by improving recovery rates and efficiency.
Types and Standards:
- Chemical Emulsion Breakers: Designed for use in oil recovery and wastewater treatment.
- Biodegradable Emulsion Breakers: Environmentally friendly options for food and beverage applications.
- **API RP 65, SASO 2412: Industry standards for performance and safety.
