Operating condition in the electrical dehydrators for crude oil is about____________________?

Correct answer: A. 6.5 kgf/Cm2 & 95°C

  • A. 6.5 kgf/Cm2 & 95°C
  • B. 1 atm. & 110 °C
  • C. 20 kgf/cm2 & 110°C
  • D. 50 atm. and 150°C

Explanation

Electrical dehydrators commonly operate at elevated pressure and around 95°C to keep crude oil sufficiently fluid while an electric field coalesces dispersed water droplets. The other conditions are either too low in pressure or excessively severe for normal dehydration.
