Resumo
Os asfaltenos são caracterizados como a fração de petróleo bruto com a maior massa molar e polaridade, pré-definindo principalmente grupos (poli)aromáticos. A floculação e a deposição de asfaltenos causam grandes perdas à indústria petrolífera. indústria. É importante compreender o comportamento de fase dos asfaltenos em condições mais próximas das encontradas no reservatório. Assim, o LMCP/UFRJ passou a operar uma unidade de alta pressão e alta temperatura (HPHT) acoplada a uma sonda de espetrometria de infravermelho próximo que pode utilizar diferentes floculantes. Este trabalho descreve o desenvolvimento de um procedimento, bem como a validação dos resultados obtidos com esta unidade. Devido à composição complexa do petróleo bruto, foram preparados sistemas modelo (MS) com asfaltenos extraídos com n-pentano (C5I) e n-heptano (C7I). (C7I). As experiências foram efectuadas à pressão atmosférica, tituladas com n-heptano, e a 100 e 300 bar, tituladas com propano. Como era de esperar, os asfaltenos C7I eram mais instáveis, apresentando um início de precipitação inferior ao dos asfaltenos C5I em condições ambientes e a pressões mais elevadas. No entanto, para ambos os EM a estabilidade aumenta com o aumento da pressão. O método proposto para avaliar o início da precipitação de asfaltenos foi eficaz para os SM em tolueno e em petróleo bruto morto e é uma alternativa promissora para a investigação de diferentes tipos de petróleo bruto.
