Abstract

Abstract: A comprehensive experiment of Fenton-like method was designed to degrade oilfield pollutants. The effects of sodium persulfate on viscosity reduction of oilfield pollutants under different reaction conditions were investigated. The emphasis was put on the determination of viscosity, and the method of data processing should be learned to optimize the best viscosity reduction scheme. The experimental content can be closely combined with the basic theoretical knowledge of Applied Chemistry in oilfields, and can be applied to field practice. It helps students to understand the role of viscosity reducers and improve their functional ability of applying chemical knowledge. At the same time, the degradation and treatment methods of oilfield pollutants meet the requirements of green chemistry and enable students to establish environmental protection concept.
