microbial enhanced oil recovery

Microbial enhanced oil recovery technology is a high-tech way to improve oil recovery technologies, including not only the growth of microorganisms in the reservoir in reproduction and metabolism biochemical processes, but also microbial cells, microbial nutrient solution, microbial metabolites in the reservoir The migration as well as rock, oil processing, gas, water, caused by the interaction of the rock, oil, gas, water, physical properties change. Microorganisms can change the composition of crude oil, making it into a low viscosity petroleum oil microorganism n-alkanes as the carbon source and the growth and reproduction, thereby changing a carbon chain composition of crude oil. Microbial aging, changing the physical properties of paraffin base crude oil, liquid or solid phase affects the balance of oil, paraffin base oil reduces the critical temperature and pressure of $ microorganisms can greatly reduce the increase of the reservoir, machine for pellets, and equipment surfaces in oil wax temperature and pressure release of the microbial growth $
The enzyme can degrade crude oil, the crude carbon strand breaks (carbon chain carbon chain of crude oil becomes so heavy reduction, light components increases, freezing point and viscosity can be reduced, not only to improve the crude oil in the reservoir mobility, but will also improve the quality of crude oil.
