Abstract:

This article presents a project of an electrical desalination plant developed using Mathcad software. Detailed calculations of the key elements of the plant, including a dehydrator, heat exchanger and pump, are carried out. The description of each element is accompanied by the necessary engineering calculations, which allows us to evaluate their efficiency and compliance with the specified parameters. Process parameters such as temperature and pressure depend mainly on the plant design. The properties of the desalted oil are no less important. Many oils are well desalted at 70-90 °C. Increasing the desalting temperature increases electrical conductivity and current strength, complicating the operating conditions of the insulators. As a result of the research, optimal operating modes of the plant were determined, which helps to reduce processing costs and increase its overall productivity. This project is of interest to energy and water supply specialists, as well as to researchers involved in the development of desalination technologies and improvement of water treatment processes.
