Spinning Skid Design

加拿大怀特福克斯技术有限公司(Whitefox)将首次与赛特理工学院合作，设计一种高效的中空纤维生产系统，该系统将在艾伯塔省开发、建造和实施。怀特福克斯专注于开发膜组件，并将其整合到工业流程中。该公司开始通过将现有的膜技术整合到新设计的工艺中来开发其技术诀窍。怀特福克斯专注于设计和建造乙醇脱水工艺，并在德国、拉脱维亚、加拿大和美国提供了生物乙醇设施。怀特福克斯目前专注于改进其乙醇脱水技术，并扩大其对气体分离，特别是水净化工艺的研究活动。水净化仍然是艾伯塔省最重要的环境问题之一。加拿大石油业非常清楚需要开发高效和有效的方法来清洁和回收石油生产中使用的工业水，特别是考虑到生产中涉及的水量很大，尾矿库的数量也在不断增加。石油作业中的水处理处理需要耐高温、高压和磨损条件，以及气体分离和乙醇脱水过程。怀特福克斯开发了一种满足当前加工条件需求的聚合物产品组合。该公司的目标是用高性能中空纤维聚合物膜取代高成本的无机材料。该项目专注于开发高性能的膜分离系统来处理石油生产过程中使用的水，这反过来将有助于减少淡水的使用量。这一前处理工艺旨在显著提高采油设施的水循环率。重点将是开发一种成本效益高、易于集成到现有工厂中的系统。

Whitefox Technologies Canada Ltd. (Whitefox) will work with SAIT Polytechnic for the first time on a project to design an efficient hollow fiber production system which will be developed, built and implemented in Alberta. Whitefox focuses on developing membrane modules and integrating these into industrial processes. The company began developing its know-how by integrating existing membrane technology into newly designed processes. Whitefox focuses on designing and constructing processes for ethanol dehydration and has provided bio-ethanol facilities in Germany, Latvia, Canada and the US. Whitefox currently concentrates on improving its ethanol dehydration technology and expanding its research activities towards gas separations and particularly water purification processes. Water purification remains one of the most important environmental concerns in Alberta. The Canadian oil industry is very much aware of the need to develop efficient and effective methods for cleaning and recovering industrial water used in oil production especially given the large volume of water involved in production and the increasing number of tailings ponds. Water treatment processing during petroleum operations requires tolerance to high temperature, high pressure, and abrasive conditions as well as gas separation and ethanol dehydration processes. Whitefox has developed a polymer portfolio which satisfies the needs of current processing conditions. The company targets replacing high cost inorganic materials with high performance hollow fiber polymer membranes. This project focuses on developing high performance membrane separation systems to treat the water used in oil production processes, which in turn will help reduce the amount of fresh water used. This pre-treatment process is intended significantly increase the water recycle rates in oil production facilities. The focus will be on developing a system which is cost effective and easily integrated into existing plants.
