Compact Floatation Unit(CFU)
A new gas flotation device has been developed by to combine the advantages of gas flotation and cyclone technology to achieve high efficiency and compact design. The new floatation device utilizes a microbubble generating device to generate microbubbles (average bubble size is 20-40 μm). The gas bubbles will attach to the tiny oil and solids contaminants in the special swirling field of the device. The oil and solids with bubbles exhibit small density and bigger particle size so that flotation efficiency is improved.
Compact Floatation Unit(CFU)can be applied to oilfield wellheads, central process facility (CPF), refineries, chemical plants. A highly efficient and compact produced water treatment solution can be provided with combination of hydrocyclone and CFU.
