Background
At present, the separation method of the oil-water mixture mainly comprises a mechanical method and a chemical method, and common mechanical methods comprise a gravity method, a centrifugal method, a coalescence method and the like.
The gravity method utilizes the difference of the densities of the oil and water, and stands for a period of time in a natural state, and the water and the oil are naturally separated to form an upper layer and a lower layer.
The centrifugal method also uses the difference in density of two phases of oil and water, and generates centrifugal force by high-speed rotation of the separation device, thereby realizing separation of oil and water. The centrifugal method has wide application range and higher separation efficiency, but the method has complex equipment and large occupied area, and is difficult to be suitable for a small laboratory.
The coalescence method is an acceleration gravity separation method combining the coalescence process and the gravity separation process into one unit, and has the advantages of high separation efficiency, short residence time and the like. But the separation device is bulky and is not suitable for laboratory use.
