Separation Processes Quiz 2 for ChemSight

We have learnt that Separation is based on some physical properties. For example, we can separate the compounds based on their density. Two of them are not going with the others in the list below?

• affinity

• reaction

• size

• shape

• name

The extracted oil (Azeri Light) is expensive and valueable, because it contains less amount of X element. Find the X

• Al

• Fe

• S

• Hg

To settle down the moving fluid in separator for offshore processing, one of the internals in separator is commonly used.

• Vortex breaker

• Coalescer

• Baffle

• Foam Breaker

One of them is the advantage of Vertical separators?

• Gas handling capacity is not function of liquid level

• Less headroom required

• Better for handling slugs

• Better for handling surges

Mayonnaise is prepared with the help of this method

• Purification

• Distillation

• Filtration

• Evaporation

Be careful!

This separation technique is mostly used one in Refining (Petroleum) industry, especially you can see those columns in downstream operation. Now, if you can guess the method, find which properties are the basis in that technique?

• Mixing point

• Crystallization point

• Volatility

• Mass

• Boiling point

Look at the given picture and decide the outlets of separator sequentially. The answers given in 1; 2; 3 order.

• Gas, oil, water

• Oil, water, gas

• Gas, water, oil

• Water, water, oil

• Water, gas, oil

What is the generic name for the equipment given in the picture?

• Vertical separator

• Distillation column

• Horizontal separator

• Fractination column

• Decanter

Let's see who was careful? On the top of all separators, we have one device which protects the vessel from overpressure scenario. Write the acronym.
