LIQUID HYDROCARBON FILTERABILITY SYSTEM

Abstract:

A liquid hydrocarbon filterability system includes a liquid hydrocarbon sample source piping in fluid communication with a liquid hydrocarbon sample container. A filtration media element is in fluid communication with the liquid hydrocarbon sample source piping. Filtered liquid hydrocarbon outlet piping is in fluid communication with and downstream of the filtration media element. A flow or volume measurement element is in fluid communication with the filtered liquid hydrocarbon outlet piping and is configured to measure an amount of liquid hydrocarbon passing through the filtration media element. A constant pressure source is configured to provide liquid hydrocarbon to the filtration media element at a constant pressure.
