  • Publication number: 20230166222
    Abstract: A device for dispersing a water-soluble polymer in powder form having a standard particle size of less than 1 mm, includes: a wetting chamber, a chamber for grinding and discharging the dispersed polymer with a horizontal axis of revolution, and a mechanism for connecting the wetting chamber to the grinding chamber in the form of an L-shaped tube. The upper and lower parts of the wetting chamber and the L-shaped tube have an internal surface with an identical surface tension (TS1). The cover of the wetting chamber has an internal surface with a surface tension (TS2) higher than the surface tension (TS1) of the internal surface of the upper and lower parts of the wetting chamber and the L-shaped tube.

  • Patent number: 10773223
    Abstract: A device for dispersing a water-soluble polymer includes a primary water inlet circuit that feeds an overflow, at the bottom end of the cone, an assembly including a chamber for grinding and draining the dispersed polymer, having a rotor driven by a motor provided with knives, a stator, over all or part of the periphery of the chamber, a ring fed by a secondary water circuit, the ring communicating with the chamber by way of slots for spraying pressurized water onto the stator The slots of the stator and/or the knives of the rotor are tilted at an angle of between 20° and 80° relative to the horizontal plane of the stator and the lateral face of the blade next to the stator is curved in such a way as to make the distance separating the two components substantially constant.

  • Patent number: 10352141
    Abstract: A pressure regulating device for the injection of an aqueous polymer solution into an oil well, the device consisting of a series of straight tubes each with a pressure gauge, each tube being separated by a valve, where the valves are gate valves and/or needle valves. A method to reduce the injection pressure of an aqueous polymer solution according to the pressure of the well using the device.

  • Publication number: 20180078913
    Abstract: A device for dispersing a water-soluble polymer including a wetting cone connected at the top of same to a column metering the polymer of standard particle size, most usually by way of a metering screw, the bottom part of the cone being connected to a primary water inlet circuit that feeds an overflow, at the bottom end of the cone, an assembly including a chamber for grinding and draining the dispersed polymer, having a rotor driven by a motor provided with knives, a stator, over all or part of the periphery of the chamber, a ring fed by a secondary water circuit, the ring communicating with the chamber by way of slots for spraying pressurized water onto the stator. The slots of the stator and/or the knives of the rotor are tilted at an angle of between 20° and 80° relative to the horizontal plane of the stator.
