METHOD OF PREPARING OIL SLIME FOR TRANSPORTING Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F17D1/16 

FIELD: oil engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises preparing oil slime in a drain collector, providing the slime collector with a lifting mechanism and drain collector having a filter-heat exchanger, compressor, electric boiler, and circulation pump, supplying heated antifreeze directly to the zone of slime filtration through a pipeline, supplying oil slime heated up to 90°C to the main line pressurized up to 1 MPa by means of a pump for discrete supplying of oil slime, with maximum water column up to 9 m, sampling thickened oil slime from the top of the tank for repeated filtering , and supplying oil slime to the tank by means of a floating servo system. To clean filters, the pump of discrete supplying of oil slime is disconnected.

EFFECT: expanded functional capabilities.
