ABSTRACT
Currently, research on oily sludge treatment mainly focuses on optimizing the deoiling effect and research on the deoiling mechanism, and the influence of petroleum components on the properties and treatment of oily sludge is rarely considered. Therefore, in this study, petroleum substances in three types of oil sludge were eluted using the biosurfactant cleaning technology, and the influence of petroleum components on the cleaning process was explored. The results showed that the biosurfactants rhamnolipid and sophorolipid had a synergistic effect, and the oil-removal rate was as high as 92.2% when the SL mass fraction was 0.4 in the compound biosurfactant. Three types of oily sludge, wellsite-landing sludge, pipeline-landing sludge, and tank-bottom sludge, were cleaned by the compound biosurfactant; the results showed that the residual petroleum substance in liquid and solid phases, the turbidity value, and the zeta-potential value of the supernatant of oil sludge samples after cleaning increased with the increase in the heavy components of the oily sludge, and the oil-removal rate decreased gradually. After cleaning, the average relative molecular weight of the three oil phases increased with the heavy components, which was increased by 1.83, 4.83, and 10.72%, respectively, and the increase in molecular weight increased the difficulty of cleaning. After cleaning, the retention time and peak intensity of the oil sample changed significantly, and it had a stronger elution effect on low-molecular-weight alkanes. It was found that the compound biosurfactant had a good elution effect on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, but the increase in the content of heavy components and the increase in aromatic rings increased the difficulty of cleaning. Moreover, it was found that the compound biosurfactant could not completely elute the petroleum substances on the surface of solid particles, and the asphaltene components in the oil phase were more difficult to elute than other components.
