Abstract
The purpose of this work is to study the effect of an acoustic field on a sample of heavy oil. In the course of the study, the choice of the optimal oil temperature when exposed to ultrasound was justified, a theoretical scheme of a field reactor for ultrasonic exposure to oil was given, and the effectiveness of its application was proved. Various methods of dealing with problems caused by heavy oils were considered, such as the use of special chemical reagents, physical methods, mechanical and thermal methods. Each method has been described in detail. As a result of the study, the following conclusions were obtained: the effect of acoustic fields on oil has not been fully studied and requires further research, however, at the moment the potential of oil treatment with ultrasound is already visible, associated with cavitation processes that occur in oil under ultrasonic exposure and contribute to the improvement of both physical and chemical properties of oil.
