Solvay Clearbreak PG 1.5 Surfactant

Solvay Clearbreak PG 1.5 Surfactant is a high-performance, nonionic polyglycol-based demulsifier from Solvay’s Clearbreak series, engineered for rapid oil–water separation in crude oil processing, especially under challenging conditions like high salinity or emulsion stability. It delivers efficient phase separation, low foaming, and excellent compatibility with other production chemicals.

Features Of Solvay Clearbreak PG 1.5 Surfactant

  1. Highly effective nonionic surfactant designed for rapid and complete phase separation in oilfield demulsification processes.

  2. Optimized polyglycol (PG) backbone with balanced hydrophilic-lipophilic properties for broad compatibility with crude oil emulsions.

  3. Low foaming profile, minimizing operational interference in high-shear production and separation equipment.

  4. Thermally stable up to 90 °C, maintaining performance under elevated downhole and surface processing conditions.

  5. Readily biodegradable per OECD 301B guidelines, supporting sustainable operational practices.

Typical Applications Of Solvay Clearbreak PG 1.5 Surfactant

  1. Crude oil dehydration—breaking water-in-oil emulsions in free-water knockouts and electrostatic treaters.

  2. Produced water treatment—enhancing oil droplet coalescence prior to gravity separation or filtration.

  3. Refinery desalter feed conditioning—improving salt and water removal efficiency in upstream units.

  4. Heavy oil and bitumen processing—facilitating water removal during diluent recovery and upgrading operations.

  5. Offshore platform demulsification—formulated for reliable performance under space-constrained, low-retention-time conditions.
