Abstract

Liquid-liquid separation is an important process in many chemical engineering applications. The ability to monitoring this process, in particular with a non-contact method is of high value. This paper proposes and implements a novel sensing system adopting a differential electromagnetic inductive sensor (DEMIS) and an FPGA-based (field-programmable gate array) impedance analyser to monitor the separation processes of an oil-in-saline liquid system. The inductive sensor has a concentric cylinder structure with its coils arranged differentially. It is optimised to achieve a homogeneous sensitivity distribution in the sensing region. Electrical models of the oil-saline separation processes are established. Experiments under different oil and saline fractions, different agitation speeds and durations are conducted to validate the capability of the system.
