DEVELOPMENT OF A METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF ALCOHOLS IN FORMATION WATER

Abstract

In this paper we propose an algorithm for the analysis of monohydric aliphatic alcohols in formation water, which makes it possible to eliminate the influence of non-polar components of oil. A sample of produced water is passed through a sorbent, removing non-polar organic compounds interfering with the analysis. In the resulting eluate add salting out agent and conduct a quantitative analysis of alcohols in the vapor phase by gas chromatography.
