Overview of Experimental Equipment for Storage and Discharge-Loading of Viscous Oil Products
The aim of the article is a generalized analysis of the most promising experimental equipment for storage and discharge-loading of viscous oil products. The objectives of the article are the study and generalization of the existing array of publications on promising developments that have passed laboratory testing and are protected by Russian patents. The research methods are based on an integrated approach, including the study of the essence of the equipment, taking into account the practice of its application. The result of this article is a review of the experience gained in creating experimental plants that reduce the viscosity of oil and oil products during their production, transportation, and storage.
