Abstract :
This paper introduces the microwave treatment method for the oil contaminated drill cuttings. The method could lead the oil content to reduce to less than 1%, and the oil recovery rate could reach 51.53%. A large amount of oil and water mixed vapor are separated from the cuttings when they are heated to 125°C. Therefore, the oil in the cuttings is carried over by water steam and removed at lower temperatures.
