Ce travail s'est concentré sur la compréhension de l'influence de la formulation et plus spécifiquement de la silice précipitée sur la résistivité électrique de séparateurs en polyéthylène destinés à des batteries au plomb. Les séparateurs de batteries en polyéthylène sont composés de silice précipitée, de polyéthylène ultra haute masse molaire (UHMWPE) et d'huile organique. La première partie de ce travail a été d'élaborer à l'échelle du laboratoire, des membranes modèles en polyéthylène. La seconde a été de comprendre l'influence de certains facteurs sur les propriétés structurales et physicochimiques des membranes. Ces facteurs sont principalement la quantité d'huile, la quantité et le grade de silice précipitée, les conditions de température lors de la cristallisation de la membrane et le mode de mise en œuvre utilisé. Les influences des quantités d'huile et de silice sur la cristallisation du polyéthylène sont méticuleusement étudiées, montrant que l'huile aide à augmenter la cristallinité finale de l'UHMWPE et que la silice joue un rôle de réservoir d'huile. Il a également été mis en évidence que la quantité ainsi que le grade de silice influencent la quantité de porosité de la membrane mouillable par l'électrolyte. La présence de silice en surface des pores est responsable de la mouillabilité de la membrane. Un paramètre empirique a donc été proposé dans le but de pouvoir quantifier l'efficacité de l'état de dispersion/distribution de la silice précipitée dans la membrane. Pour terminer, pour une formulation et un même mode de mise en œuvre, il est possible de discriminer l'efficacité des grades de silice précipitée pour l'application séparateur de batterie / This work is devoted to understand the effect of the formulation and more specifically of the precipitated silica on the resistivity of the PE-separators. The PE-separators are designed for the lead-acid batteries. PE-separators are composed of precipitated silica, ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and organic oil. The first part of this work was to elaborate PE-separator models at a laboratory scale. Then, the factors impacting the structural and physico-chemicals properties of PE-separators were investigated. These factors are mainly the amounts of oil, precipitated silica, the grade of the precipitated silica, the temperature conditions of crystallization and the device used to elaborate the membrane. The influence of the amounts of oil and precipitated silica on the crystallization of the polyethylene wasthoroughly described showing that the oil helps to increase the final crystallinity of UHMWPE and that the silica plays a role of oil reservoir. Moreover, it was shown that the amount and the grade of precipitated silica have an influence on the wettable part of the porosity of the PE-separators. The coating of the pores by the precipitated silica is responsible of the wettability of the membranes by the electrolyte. Thus, an empirical parameter has been proposed in order to quantify the efficiency of the dispersion and distribution of the precipitated silica in the membrane. The more the membranes are wettable by the electrolyte the more the resistivity of the membranes is decreased. To finish, for a same amount of components and a same method of processing, it is possible to discriminate the efficiency of each grade of precipitated silica for the battery separator application

Atualmente, existe uma tendência entre os projetistas brasileiros de valorizar a etapa de tratamento preliminar em projetos de novas estações de tratamento de esgoto (ETE). Neste ensejo foi concebido, construído e estudado um protótipo, em escala plena, de uma unidade composta de separador hidrodinâmico por vórtice (SHV) – empregado como desarenador – e grade fina cilíndrica de fluxo tangencial. Estudos acerca da hidrodinâmica da unidade, fundamentados em ensaios de estímulo-resposta com traçador (sal de cozinha) e simulações computacionais do padrão de escoamento em software de dinâmica dos fluidos computacional, demonstrou que ao se operar a unidade com taxas de aplicação superficial (TAS) de 764 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd; 1.146 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd e 1.528 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd o regime de macro-mistura do padrão de escoamento que se desenvolve no SHV aproximou-se do plug-flow, porém com certo grau de mistura que diminuiu com o aumento da TAS. Nesta pesquisa, foram desenvolvidos dois métodos um para determinação da concentração de areia no esgoto sanitário e outro para determinação da distribuição granulométrica dos grãos dessa areia. Ambos foram empregados na avaliação de desempenho da unidade de tratamento preliminar desenvolvida, que foi realizada na estação elevatória de ETE Jardim das Flores do município de Rio Claro, SP. Durante esta fase da pesquisa, o SHV demonstrou enorme potencialidade na remoção de areia para as TAS de 764 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd; 1.146 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd e 1.528 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd, porquanto, além de não remover significativamente matéria orgânica particulada (medida em termos de concentração de sólidos suspensos voláteis) presentes no esgoto sanitário, a unidade atingiu eficiências de remoção de grãos de areia de tamanho maior ou igual a 200 'mü'm entre 85% e 95%. Entretanto, a grade fina cilíndrica de fluxo tangencial (auto-limpante) revelou-se inviável. / Currently, there is a trend among the brazilian designers of valorizing the preliminary treatment in recently designed wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). In this context, a full scale prototype of a unit made up of a hydrodynamic vortex separator (HVS) – applied as a degritter – and a tangential flux fine screening was designed, built and evaluated. Research about the hydrodynamic of the prototype, based on stimulus-response essays with a salt tracer (sodium chloride) and computational simulations of the flow pattern using the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) software, showed that the macro mixture regime of the flow was similar to a plug-flow when the unit was operated with superficial loading rates (SLR) of 746 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd; 1.146 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd and 1.528 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd, however, the flow presented a certain mixture degree that reduced with the SLR increase. In this research, two methods were developed: one for the determination of grit concentration in sewage and another one for the assessment of grit grading. Both methods were used on the evaluation of the HVS prototype efficiency, which was carried out at Jardim das Flores WWT, in the city of Rio Claro, SP. During this phase of the research, the HVS presented a great potential for grit removal when the SLR of 746 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd; 1.146 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd and 1.528 'M POT.3'/'M POT.2'd were applied; for the reason that, besides not significantly removing the particulate organic matter present in sewage (measured as volatile suspended solids), the unit achieved grit removal efficiencies in the range of 85% to 95% for grit equal to or large than 200 'mü'm. However, the tangential flux cylindrical fine screening (self cleaning) did not reveal feasibility.

[pt] O medidor de vazão de fluido multifásico (MM) se desenvolveu impulsionado principalmente pela necessidade da indústria de óleo e gás em medir a vazão da produção dos poços que comumente é composta por petróleo, gás e água. Em outubro de 2015, a Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis (ANP) publicou o Regulamento Técnico de Medição de Fluido Multifásico para Apropriação de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Água que apresenta os requisitos através de planos que as empresas operadoras de óleo e gás precisam preparar e submeter para obter a autorização para aplicar o MM na medição para apropriação. Contudo, esse regulamento não especifica a metodologia que deve ser utilizada no denominado plano de verificação de desempenho para avaliar desempenho do MM no campo, cabendo a cada operadora desenvolver a sua metodologia para esse fim e apresentar a ANP. Este trabalho propõe e aplica uma metodologia para verificação de desempenho para MM com resultados de testes realizados em laboratório com fluidos reais e em campo de produção de petróleo e gás. É observado que testes com tempo curto de duração, inferior a 1000 segundos, tendem a gerar incertezas mais elevadas do que testes com longa duração, com mais de 1000 segundos, como os realizados na plataforma. Sendo assim, os resultados de incerteza de medição maiores gerados no laboratório com tempos de integração curtos podem ser considerados mais conservativos que os resultados dos testes realizados na plataforma. / [en] The multiphase flowrate (MM) was driven by the necessity of the oil and gas industry to measure the production flow of the wells that are commonly composed of oil, gas and water. In October 2015, the National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) published the Technical Regulation for Measurement of Multiphase Fluid for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Water produced, which presents the requirements through plans that oil and gas companies need to prepare and submit for authorization to apply the MM in the measurement for allocation. However, this regulation does not specify the methodology that should be used in the so-called performance verification plan to evaluate the performance of the MM in the field, it being incumbent on each operator to develop its methodology for this purpose and present the ANP. This work proposes and applies a methodology for performance verification for MM with test results performed in the laboratory with real fluids and in oil and gas field. It was observed that short duration tests, below 1000 seconds, tend to generate higher uncertainties than long tests, higher than 1000 seconds, such as those performed on the platform. Thus, the higher measurement uncertainty results generated in the laboratory with short integration times can be considered more conservative than the results of the tests performed in the platform.

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. / O presente trabalho aborda o comportamento da planta de processamento primário com alimentação por fluxo em padrão de golfadas. O fluxo no sistema de tubulações é descrito por um modelo de parâmetros concentrados, fornecendo as características principais necessárias para o controle da planta, e a resposta dinâmica desta pode então ser analisada. Usando a estratégia de controle tradicional verifica-se que as oscilações de fluxo são transmitidas para as vazões de saída de líquido e gás, para obter uma vazão de saída mais estável é permitida a flutuação de carga no separador dentro de uma tolerância, isto é possível reduzindo a atuação do controlador e estabelecendo um controle adicional diretamente na válvula de entrada. / The present work addresses the behavior of a primary processing plant subjected to slug flow pattern at its entrance. The flow in a pipeline system is described by a simplified concentrated parameter model, which preserves the main physical features that are important to control the plant. The dynamic response of the plant is then analyzed. Using a standard control strategy for the gas liquid separator, it is seen that the flow oscillations are transmitted to the liquid and gas outlets. In order to obtain a more stable outlet flow, the liquid level in the separator is then allowed to fluctuate within a given range, by reducing the effect of the controller constants, and establishing an additional control directly on the inlet entrance valve.
