Abstract EN
An investigation was conducted for dewaxing of lubricating oil fraction by urea to reduce the pour point.
In this study mixture of 45 % methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and 55 % toluene was used as a solvent.
The studied variables are mixing time (10-70 min), solvent to oil volume ratio (0.5 : 1- 2 : 1), urea to wax weight ratio (2- 6) and constant mixing speed 1500 rpm.
By analysis of the experimental results, the best operating conditions achieved are mixing time 40 min, solvent / oil 2 : 1 volume ratio, and urea / wax 4 : 1 weight ratio.
At these conditions the pour point of the lubricating oil decreases from 24 ° C to -13 °C.
