Enfoque de solución

RawSource supplies the base chemicals that go into these programs. We can help with product selection, grade matching, and sourcing from multiple origins for supply security.

Typical Treatment Workflow
1
System Assessment
Characterize operating conditions — fluid composition, temperature, pressure, flow, and H2S/CO2/water cut — and benchmark current treatment performance.
2
Chemistry Selection
Match scale and corrosion inhibitors, biocides, or demulsifiers to the operating envelope, factoring compatibility, regulatory constraints, and downstream impacts.
3
Field Trial & Dosing
Determine treat rates through bottle and field trials, and configure continuous or batch delivery and packaging (drums, totes, ISO tanks) to logistics.
4
Monitoring & Adjustment
Track corrosion coupon/ER rates, residual inhibitor, and separator and water-quality performance, adjusting chemistry and dose as wells change.
Recommended Chemistries (6)
Potassium amyl xanthate (PAX)
CAS 2720-73-2
Aditivos Especiales
Sulfide mineral collector
Strong sulfide collector: chemisorbs on the mineral surface making it hydrophobic so it attaches to air bubbles

Detalles completos
Sodium isobutyl xanthate (SIBX)
CAS 25306-75-6
Aditivos Especiales
Sulfide mineral collector
Shorter-chain xanthate giving more selective sulfide collection at lower cost

Detalles completos
Potassium ethyl xanthate (PEX)
CAS 140-90-9
Aditivos Especiales
Humectación
Potassium ethyl xanthate is the shortest-chain xanthate collector, giving the most selective (lowest-collecting-power) sulfide flotation for cleaner separations alongside PAX/SIBX

Oleic Acid
CAS 112-80-1
Ácidos y Sales
Oxide mineral collector
Fatty-acid collector for oxide/non-sulfide minerals (e.g. apatite, fluorite, hematite)
Punto de fusión:16 °C   Punto de ebullición:286 °C at 100 mmHg   Densidad:0.89 at 25 °C

Detalles completos
Copper sulfate pentahydrate
CAS 7758-99-8
Ácidos y Sales
Acción biocida
3288 (COPPER SULFATE PENTAHYDRATE) · Class
Activator: copper ions adsorb onto sphalerite so xanthate can collect zinc sulfide
Punto de fusión:147 °C (dehydrates)   Punto de ebullición:653 °C at 760 mmHg (decomposes)   Densidad:2.284
