CA 2333301

Apparatus in fluid communication with an oil-contamined water supply, such as a water leg portion of an offshore drilling or production platform sump tank, for conveying the separated water into contact with an organophilic clay in a vessel maintained at an operating pressure above atmospheric, preferably at a pressure of at least 10 psig, such that the hydrocarbons and other organic material contaminants will be adsorbed onto the organophilic clay and the water will pass through the clay and will be conveyed back to the ocean water without contamination.

On décrit un appareil qui est relié par le fluide à une source d'eau contaminée par de l'huile, telle qu'une partie chemise d'eau d'un forage en mer ou d'un réservoir de boues de plate-forme de production, et qui sert à mettre en contact l'eau séparée avec de l'argile organophilique dans une cuve maintenue à une pression efficace supérieure à la pression atmosphérique, de préférence à une pression au moins égale à 10 psig, de sorte que les hydrocarbures et les autres contaminants de matières organiques soient adsorbés par l'argile organophilique et que l'eau traverse l'argile puis soit renvoyée dans l'eau de l'océan, sans contamination.
