| Popis: | A high pressure short time heat treatment is required for improvement of fluid properties of viscous raw oil and reduction of energy consumption for pumping. Microwave heating is investigated to achieve significant process improvements as compared to conventional heating technology. The engineering of a lab-scale flow reactor is presented that allows continuous microwave treatment for a maximum flow rate of 11 kg/h at 300 to 400 °C and up to 30 bar pressure. A unique microwave cavity design has been developed to enable homogeneous temperature distribution, high energy efficiency, and safe operation at high pressure. |
