Élimination des sels du pétrole brut. 2, record 3, French, - dessalage
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La plupart des pétroles bruts contiennent des chlorures de sodium et de magnésium ainsi que des sulfates et, même lorsqu'ils n'en contiennent pas à la sortie du gisement, on en trouve à la raffinerie car les citernes du navire transporteur sont généralement polluées par un peu d'eau de mer et de rouille. Ces sels donnent lieu à la production d'acides chlorhydrique et sulfurique pendant la distillation; il faut donc les éliminer avant. 3, record 3, French, - dessalage
