In the oil and gas industry, the design of the mixer is crucial, especially in the process of extraction, storage and processing. KEHENG offers a full range of industrial mixers designed to meet different application requirements. Our engineers will deeply understand your process requirements, analyze factors such as tank design, viscosity and density, on-site working environment, and customize efficient mixing solutions for you to ensure the best mixing effect.
The role of keheng mixers in the oil & gas industry:
In the process of oil and gas production, many fluids (such as emulsions, slurries, and mixtures) need to maintain a consistent mixing state. KEHENG mixers can provide excellent mixing effects in high-viscosity and high-density fluids to ensure uniform and consistent fluids.
During crude oil storage or refining, it is crucial to prevent sediment accumulation. KEHENG mixers ensure that solids and liquids remain evenly suspended and prevent sedimentation through efficient mixing, thereby improving the fluidity of the entire system.
The oil and gas industry often needs to operate under extreme temperature and pressure conditions. KEHENG mixers are specially designed with high temperature and high pressure resistant materials and structures, which can operate stably in harsh environments and extend the service life of the equipment.
Applications
1.Crude Oil Storage & Processing
During crude oil storage and processing, the main function of the mixer is to maintain the fluidity of crude oil and prevent solid deposition and impurity accumulation.
2. Wastewater Treatment & Oil-water Separation
A large amount of oily wastewater is produced during oil extraction and refining. KEHENG mixers play an important role in the wastewater treatment systems, helping chemicals to fully mix with wastewater and promote oil-water separation, thereby removing harmful substances from wastewater.
3. Chemical Additive Mixing
During the processing and refining of oil, chemical additives such as corrosion inhibitors, fungicides and flocculants are often added to crude oil or other liquids to improve processing efficiency and production quality. KEHENG mixers ensure that these additives can be evenly mixed to avoid poor reaction effects caused by uneven distribution.
4. Fluid Heating & Cooling Process
The processing of oil and gas is usually accompanied by temperature changes, KEHENG mixers provide assistance in the heating and cooling of fluids. It can improve the efficiency of heat conduction, ensure uniform temperature distribution in reactors or storage tanks, and avoid local temperature differences from having a negative impact on reaction efficiency and product quality.
5. Mud Stirring & Solid-liquid Separation
In drilling operations, mud mixing is the key to ensure smooth operation. The mixer maintains the viscosity and fluidity of the mud by evenly mixing the solids and liquids in the mud, while preventing the precipitation of solid particles. Stable mud helps to maintain the stability of the well wall, reduce blockage and friction, and improve drilling efficiency.
6. Gas Injection & Mixing
During the process of enhanced oil and gas recovery, the mixers can be used to promote the mixing of gases (such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen or water vapor) with oil or gas in the underground reservoir. This injection process helps to improve oil recovery efficiency and make the utilization of oil and gas resources more efficient.
Classification of mixers by drive mode
Gear-driven Mixers
Gear-driven mixers transmit power efficiently through a gear system and are suitable for applications that require high torque output and stability. It can provide large torque and is suitable for mixing high-viscosity fluids, such as heavy oil and asphalt. This system has a compact structure and good stability, and is suitable for long-term, high-load operation, especially in oil refining and chemical reaction processes.
Belt-driven mixers transmit power through a belt and roller system and are suitable for medium and low load mixing needs. It provides flexible speed adjustment, low noise and shock absorption, and is suitable for occasions that require less power and lower cost. Due to its relatively low transmission efficiency, belt drive is more suitable for mixing low-viscosity liquids and is suitable for projects with limited budgets and high requirements for noise control.
