The results show when water content in crude oil is less than 0.05 weight percent, both methods are equally accurate for determining salt content, but when there is an increase in associated water content in crude oil, the electrometric method followed by volumetric titration method shows more accurate results in comparison with the extraction procedure.","PeriodicalId":7797,"journal":{"name":"Analytical Methods in Environmental Chemistry Journal","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88652460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, electrocatalytic synthesis of organic molecules is known as a green and environmentally benign method. In the present form, electrocatalytic multicomponent transformation of barbituric acid, aromatic aldehydes, and 4-hydroxycumarin was carried out. The electrocatalytic transformation was done in alcohols in the presence of tetrabutylammounium flouride as an electrolyte in an undivided cell containing an iron electrode as the cathode and a Pt electrode as the anode at a constant current leads to substituted chromeno[3’,4’:5,6] pyrano[2,3-d] pyrimidines in good to high yields (54-92%) at room temperature.

In the static method, design of experiments was performed for all three tested ILs and three parameters such as time, temperature, and dosage (injection volume) of ILs were investigated. A wide range of time and temperature was also studied according to operating conditions in petroleum terminals.The dose of ILs was obtained from the dynamic method.
