Method of reclaiming brine solutions using an organic chelant
A method of reclaiming a well completion brine solution by using an organic chelant that is capable of discriminating between (i) iron and non-zinc heavy metals; and (ii) calcium and zinc. The chelant contains a functional group selected from the group -CO2H or -PO(R21)R20 or a salt or ester thereof...

Zusammenfassung: | A method of reclaiming a well completion brine solution by using an organic chelant that is capable of discriminating between (i) iron and non-zinc heavy metals; and (ii) calcium and zinc. The chelant contains a functional group selected from the group -CO2H or -PO(R21)R20 or a salt or ester thereof, -C(O)-, -OE, -SE, -N-C(R2)R3, EO-N-C(R2)R3, -N(R2)R3, and -N(C(O)R1)R2 group optionally substituted with a -COOH or -PO(R21)R20 or a salt or ester thereof, -SE or -OE group, wherein R2 and R3 are independently selected from E or forms, with nitrogen, phosphorous, oxygen or sulfur, a heterocyclic ring; E is R1 or -H; R1 is a C1-C30 alkyl or aralkyl group or a derivative thereof and R20 and R21 are independently selected from -OH, -OR1 and R1. |
