Abstract: Theoretical model describing the movement of particles of saline water in oil flowing over a larger droplet of fresh water has been developed to solve the problem of cleaning oil from salts. The results of calculations of the effect of the radius and the initial velocity of a drop of fresh water on the coagulation of fresh and saline water droplets are presented.

Keywords: desalination technology, jet mixer, droplet movement.
