Emulsions formed by water in crude oil need to be broken before refining processes. Novel derivatives of imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) containing triazole moiety [SIm-TazCn][Br] were synthesized and grafted onto cellulose (CEL) to prepare eco-friendly demulsifiers for breaking water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. The CEL[SIm-TazC6][Br] derivative showed a good dehydration efficiency (DE) of 79% at 4000 ppm after 5 min, which increased to 82% after 24 h. The interfacial tension (IFT) of CEL[SIm-TazC6][Br] with a shorter alkyl chain at 4000 ppm after 24 h was measured to be the minimum value of 16.3 mN/m.
Waterin the crude oil forms emulsions that must be broken beforerefining processes. Here, the novel and versatile derivatives of imidazoliumionic liquids (ILs) containing triazole moiety [SIm-TazCn][Br] weresynthesized via click chemistry and then graftedonto the cellulose (CEL) to prepare eco-friendly demulsifiers forbreaking water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. The prepared compounds withtwo kinds of alkyl chains named CEL[SIm-TazC6][Br] and CEL[SIm-TazC10][Br]were characterized and employed for demulsifying W/O (30:70 and 50:50vol %) emulsions. Also, the effect of the type and concentration ofeach demulsifier on the phase separation and dehydration efficiency(DE) were investigated through the bottle test. According to the bottletest results, the CEL[SIm-TazC6][Br] derivative at 4000 ppm showeda good DE of 79% after 5 min, which increased to 82% after 24 h. Theinterfacial tension (IFT) of derivatives at different concentrationswas measured. The minimum IFT value of 16.3 mN/m was obtained forCEL[SIm-TazC6][Br] with a shorter alkyl chain at 4000 ppm after 24h. The green and efficient CEL-based surfactants significantly demulsifiedthe W/O emulsions because of the collaboration between imidazoliumand triazole moieties.
