Reliable pumps for desalting
Desalting
Prior to distillation, crude oil is often desalted to remove corrosive salts as well as metals and other suspended solids. Desalting removes calcium, sodium and magnesium chlorides. This keeps deposits from forming and causing plugging later in the refining process.
