Oil in Water Analyzer Helps Students at Aalborg University Esbjerg, Denmark Study Membrane Filtration of Produced Water

Fresno, CA, February 11, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Four Oil and Gas engineering students from Aalborg University Esbjerg have written a 1st semester masters project with focus on membrane filtration of produced water. The students used the TD-500D, by Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments, to test the concentration of oil in water for the feed, permeate, and retentate of a ceramic membrane connected to a feed tank. They were able to reduce oil in water concentration from 32 ppm on the feed to 5.5 ppm, 12.1 ppm, and 3.6 ppm on the filtrate side from three experiments. The students also carried out another experiment to determine the quantity of oil stuck in pipes and membrane. For that, they used the readings from the TD-500D to calculate the mass and thereafter set up the mass balances.

“The TD-500D hand held oil in water analyzer is the easiest to use and factory support for the project was outstanding.” - Josefine Jakobsen, Student

The TD-500D is the World’s best hand held Oil in Water Analyzer because it is the most accurate and repeatable device on the market for measuring crude oil and condensates in produced water, de-salter tail water, tank bottoms, cargo heaters, or anywhere that crude oil comes in contact with water. The TD-500D is designed and manufactured by Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments, Fresno, CA, USA.

Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments manufactures oil in water monitors for all forms of heavy industry including oil and gas, power, desalination, refining, petrochemical, and shipping.
