  • CO2-Solvent Core Cleaning

    The core cleaner is utilized to remove liquid phases (e.g. crude oil, drilling fluids, water…) from core plug samples. The principle consists of filling the gas-filled space in the core with solvent (e.g. toluene) by surrounding the core with a suitable solvent containing dissolved CO2 gas and applying sufficient hydraulic pressure. A number of repeated cycles are required to clean the core of hydrocarbons.

  • Soxhlet Extractor

    The Soxhlet extractor is originally designed for the extraction of a lipid from a solid material and has three main sections: a percolator (boiler and reflux) which circulates the solvent, a thimble (usually made of thick filter paper) which retains the solid to be laved, and a siphon mechanism, which periodically empties the thimble. Regarding this functionality, the Soxhlet distillation extraction method is used to dissolved and extract oil and brine from rock samples by using a solvent.
