Investigation of the Effect of the Solution Diesel-Alkaline Waste in Water on the Process of Capillary Impregnation

Abstract

The article studies of the effect of diesel-alkaline waste in water on the process of capillary impregnation. In this regard, a number of experiments are carried out in laboratory conditions on a special installation. Inside the installation, the effect of capillary forces on the capillary impregnation process is investigated by creating a porous medium from various fractions of sand and clay. It is established that a one percent solution of DCO in water retains its surface-active property and it is advisable to use it in capillary impregnation processes. It is also shown that the proposed solution, acting on the swelling of clay, reduces it and sufficiently increases the compression ratio of oil.
