Abstract: A high voltage discharge generating a plasma wave front is disposed within a headspace over an oil-containing liquid in order to create various chemical changes within the headspace, and ultimately within the liquid in order to inactivate various microbes, synthesize new chemicals, speed separation of a mixture, and aid in oil extraction. Such a discharge may be repeated at an optimum duration and duty-cycle to maximize the chemical effects of the non-equilibrium plasma at a substantially lower temperature than for an equilibrium plasma.

Abstract: A process for continuously upgrading heavy oil to produce light hydrocarbon gases which are recycled in the process as a carrier gas used in spark-discharge hydrocarbon cracking within the process. The process also produces light hydrocarbon liquids which are used to upgrade the heavy oil. An apparatus for continuously upgrading heavy oil to produce light hydrocarbon gases which are recycled in the as a carrier gas used in spark-discharge hydrocarbon cracking within the apparatus. The apparatus also produces light hydrocarbon liquids which are used to upgrade the heavy oil.

Abstract: Provided is an approach for scaling up a multiphase plasma chemical reactor that uses gas bubble discharge in liquids. One example involves single spark gap discharge scale up systems and processes with suitable characteristic parameters. Scaling parameters are based on the size change of one spark gap. Another example involves scale-up systems and processes that can be applied to multiple spark gaps with multiple discharge modules and its dimension information. Numbers of modules and resulting device sizes could be based on required production rate and specific energy input. Applications allow for scaling up of any plasma chemical system or process with similar mechanisms and reactors, such oil treatment reactors.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods involving a plasma electro-coalescence reactor. The reactor includes a set of ports configured to receive an emulsified mixture into the reactor, receive a non-oxidative gas into the reactor, expel oil from the reactor, and expel water from the reactor. The reactor includes a set of electrodes including a first electrode in a headspace of the reactor, and a second electrode, the set of electrodes configured to receive a voltage at or in excess of a breakdown voltage of the non-oxidative gas.
