Exfoliated graphite was found to sorb selectively a large amount of heavy oil, about 80 g of heavy oil floating on water per 1 g of exfoliated graphite, which is highly possible to be applied to recovering spilled heavy oil. Sorption capacity, selectivity and kinetics of exfoliated graphite were reviewed. The possibility of recovery of heavy oil from exfoliated graphite and recycling of both recovered heavy oil and exfoliated graphite was also discussed. Its sorption performance was compared with other materials which were reported to show sorption of heavy oil.

As the leakage of crude oil from tankers breaks out frequently, it caused a serious problem for ocean pollution and calls for developing treatments to handle the leaked crude oil and mitigate the pollution. Thus it is required to develop new purification technolgies and appropriate treatment systems which have sufficient treatment capability in order to cope with the anticipated ocean pollution. In this experiment, A and B type heavy oils were used to make the emulsion of both water containing heavy oil and sea-water containing heavy oil. The following are the main results from this study ; 1. When A and B type heavy oils were added to the original sea-water and treatedin the homogrenizer respectively, the particle of oil beacame smaller in both cases. Under the same condition, while the initial oil density of sea-water containing B-heavy oil is higher than of emulsion with A-heavy oil, the particle of A-heavy oil is finer than that of B-heavy oil. 2. When A and B type heavy oils were added to distilled water and treated in the homogenizer respectively, the particle was more dispersed and finer than that in the case of sea-water in both cases. In this result, the water containing oil formed more stable emulsion than the sea-water containing oil. 3. In this experiment, all emulsions showed oil in water types. 4. Since the oil particle is larger in the sea-water than in the distillated water, interms of elimination of oil, it is thought to be more important to give Membrane treatment after implementing sandfilter, activity carbon, coagulation-sedimentation and floating separation as pre-treatment.

Heavy crudes (bitumen) are extremely viscous and contain high concentrations of asphaltene, resins, nitrogen and sulfur containing heteroaromatics and several metals, particularly nickel and vanadium. These properties of heavy crude oil present serious operational problems in heavy oil production and downstream processing. There are vast deposits of heavy crude oils in many parts of the world. In fact, these reserves are estimated at more than seven times the known remaining reserves of conventional crude oils. It has been proven that reserves of conventional crude oil are being depleted, thus there is a growing interest in the utilization of these vast resources of unconventional oils to produce refined fuels and petrochemicals by upgrading. Presently, the methods used for reducing viscosity and upgradation is cost intensive, less selective and environmentally reactive. Biological processing of heavy crudes may provide an ecofriendly alternative or complementary process with less severe process conditions and higher selectivity to specific reactions to upgrade heavy crude oil. This review describes the prospects and strengths of biological processes for upgrading of heavy crude oil.

원해수와 증류수에 각각 A중유를 첨가하여 homogenizer로 30분간 처리하여 emulsion올 만들어 유탁해수 및 유탁수가 RO막에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과 내용은 다음과 같다. 원해수를 RO막에 공급할 경우, 투과수량은 실험 초기부터 저하했다. 염소이온 및 전기전도도는 원수중의 현탁 물질이 막 표면에 축척되어, 이 fouling에 의해 막의 성능이 떨어져 시간이 경과함에 따라 상승하였다. 염의 저지율은 99.6~99.7%이었다. 유탁해수를 RO막에 공급한 경우, 투과수량은 실험초기부터 서서히 저하했지만, 원해수만의 실험결과와 비교하면 차이가 없다. 그러나 염소이온농도 및 전기전도도는 oil을 첨가한 시점에서 상당히 상승하였다. 유탁해수를 RO막에 공급한 재현성 실험에서, 여과시간은 상당히 짧았다. 염소이온은 oil을 첨가한 시점에서 상당히 상승한 반면, 투과수량은 상대적으로 감소했다. 또한 emulsion을 $0.3{\sim}0.8mg/{\ell}$의 범위로 만들어 RO막에 공급했지만, fouling에 의해 실험 종료시 투과수에는 약 10ppb 정도 oil이 유출했다. 유탁수의 경우, 전기전도도는 큰 변화없이 약간 상승하는 경향을 나타내고 있다. 그러나, 투과수량은 실험개시부터 거의 변화가 없었지만 A중유를 첨가한 시점에서 감소하여 실험 종료시는 초기의 투과수량에 비해 약 30% 밖에 투과하지 않았다. 유탁해수를 이용한 실험과는 상반된 결과를 나타내고 있지만 oil이 유입되면 영향은 상당히 컸다. 유분이 RO막 시스템에 유입되면, RO막 장치에 대한 유분의 부착과, RO막 자체에 유분이 부착하여 fouling을 일으켜, 거의 운전을 행할 수 없었다. 즉 유분의 영향으로 인해 막 성능, 투과 수량 및 투과수 수질이 상당히 저하되었다.

Preparing for treatment and management of the emulsified fuel oil which will be generalized henceforth, this paper is an attempt to examine the viscosity-temperature characteristics of emulsified heavy fuel oil which is mixed with water and emulsifier in various mixture ratio by mechanical mixer. The experimental results are summarized as follows: 1. The viscosity-temperature characteristics of the emulsified C & B grade heavy fuel oil mixed with water of same or less weight, is changed according to log.log(v+0.6)=b-3.8log T. 2. The emulsifier has to be added to the emulsified A grade heavy fuel oil mixed with water of same or less weight, because it is instable. Especially if the emulsifier is sodium stearate, it is added more than 0.3% of the weight of oil and water. 3. In the emulsified A grade heavy fuel oil mixed with water and emulsifier, the higher the ratio of water addition becomes, the higher the viscosity is and the more the viscosity-temperature slope decreases. But the higher the ratio of emulsifier addition is, the more the viscosity-temperature slope increases. In this case, the linearity of viscosity-temperature characteristic curve is poorer than that of B and C grade heavy fuel oil. 4. In the emulsified A grade heavy fuel oil mixed with emulsifier of 0.3% or less, the emulsion type is O/W type when water addition ratio is 40%, but it is W/O type when it is 10%, 20%, 30% and 50%.

본 연구에서는 중유회의 고형연료로써 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 첨가제별 성형 특성과 조성을 분석하고, 제조한 SRF(Solid Refuse Fuel)의 발열량을 비교하였다. SRF 성형을 위해 함께 첨가한 첨가제는 귤박, 폐목재, 석탄이었으며, 함수율 30%를 기준으로 각각의 첨가제를 혼합하여 압출방법을 통해 펠렛 형태로 제조하였다. 실험결과, SRF의 성형성은 중유회와 석탄 또는 귤박을 혼합한 조건에서 우수하였으며, 발열량은 석탄을 혼합한 SRF가 4,274 kcal/kg 으로 가장 높았다. 따라서 중유회를 활용한 고형연료의 합성 조건은 20 wt%의 석탄을 혼합하여 함수율 30%로 제어하였을 때, 높은 성형성과 발열량의 향상을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과로부터 J 화력발전소의 중유회를 활용하여 첨가제(귤박, 폐목재, 석탄)를 일정 비율로 주입하였을 때 고형연료의 제조 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

To find the best combustion conditions in the heavy oil burner kinetic viscosity of heavy oil A, B and C at different temperature range, from 40 to 140$^{\circ}C$, and the droplet sizes of the heavy oils at different temperature and pump pressure were measured. And, combustion characteristics were investigated under the different conditions : two different heavy oil and three different oil temperature. At temperature of 70, 100, 130$^{\circ}C$ the kinetic viscosity of heavy oil A and B are 7.9, 5.7, 4.3 and 30.4, 13.7, 7.9cSt, respectively. The greatest and smallest viscosity were 7,455 cSt at C oil on 27$^{\circ}C$ and 4.26cSt at A oil on 140$^{\circ}C$. The magnitude of viscosity difference between at 100$^{\circ}C$ and 140$^{\circ}C$ under 6 cSt in cases of A and B oil, but more than 30cST on C oil. Of the droplet sizes, the biggest and smallest droplet size in A oil were 98$\mu\textrm{m}$ at oil temperature of 130$^{\circ}C$(4.3cSt), pump pressure of 1.57MPa and 72$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 70$^{\circ}C$(7.9cSt), 2.35MPa, respectively. It appeared that as spraying pressure increased the droplet size decreased, however, no distinct differences were found in the effects of kinetic viscosity on the droplet sizes of the test range. The best combustion performance was observed when droplet size, spraying pressure and oil temperature were 73$\mu\textrm{m}$, 2.35MPa and 70$^{\circ}C$ producing CO2 of 13.1%, CO of 13ppm and flue gas temperature of 250$^{\circ}C$ in A oil combustion For B oil, it was100$^{\circ}C$, 2.35MPa, 52$\mu\textrm{m}$, producing CO2 of 10ppm and flue gas temperature of 260$^{\circ}C$. In general, it appeared that better combustion results were observed in the smaller droplets produced burner condition.

The product developed in this study is a ceramic catalyst filter for 1 ton heavy-oil boiler that can simultaneously process dust and nitrogen oxides. This has been developed for simultaneous processing of nitrogen oxides and dust at high efficiency of hot exhaust gas (approximately $300^{\circ}C$) generated after burning 1 ton heavy oil boiler. Ceramic catalytic filters for 1 tonne heavy-duty glass display are technologies that remove 90% of dust and 85% or more of nitrogen oxides. This is an improved new technology to integrate exhaust ventilation and desiccation devices into one, thereby reducing the production process and improving the economy. To this end, the performance test of the catalytic filter for heavy oil boilers was carried out, and the durability of the PLC circuit was constructed.
