Detailed Product Description
waste oil regeneration ( waste oil salvage , waste oil recycle )
1. Renewable waste oil
Lubricant base oil, emulsified liquid extracted from crude petroleum as well as other oils from animal oil and plant oil.
2. Purpose of waste oil regeneration
As cherished underground resource, lubricant oil can be used in industry and daily life after strict refining.
At the same time, it can cause heavy pollution to environment such as soil, water and air etc if the waste lubricant oil is discharged directly,
Waste oil can be recycled like waste iron, especially lubricant oil. What's more, its performance will not be influenced by recycling.
It has been legislated to regulate waste oil collection in some developed countries. It even works as the crude oil is cheap.
The collection of the waste oil was no need for cost by the law in some countries, such as South Korea. With the increasing price of the crude oil, the development and prospect of the waste oil recycling has become more and more wide and opening. No cost for waste oil collection becomes the past.
3. Technology and equipment
There are chemical reaction, pyrolysis, plasma purification, distillation, vacuum distillation, fusion purification, hydrogen reaction etc during waste oil regeneration.
The fabrication process is different with waste oil use purpose. At the same time it causes pollution to different extents by the environment they are used. The best method of waste oil regeneration is to purchase oil systematically according to lubricant oil varieties, then process to recover their original performance. The other way, the oil tends to be compound oil with mineral oil, animal oil, plant oil containing various kinds of additives. The performance of lubricant oil will be restrained and influenced.
Take waste mineral lubricant oil as example to give a simple description on a general technology and equipment:
Firstly, pre-processing that separate water through atmospheric distillation and separate waste oil according to the specific gravity after decreasing the viscosity by solvent oil.
Secondly, renewable processes that make use of special film distiller under high vacuum state to distill lubricant base oil with the temperature lower than decomposing temperature.
Thirdly, renewable processes that produce fuel by mixing residual oil from distillation process and low boiling point curdle oil. Fourthly, post-processing in which the firstly produced lubricant base oil should go through white clay reaction and high pressure filter. This Processes will get involved the following items: cooling equipment, electric device, mechanical equipment, steel structure, waste incinerator, fire fighting device as well as stock device etc.
Market prospects
There are little people aware of this technology and the government has not issue related laws and regulation in China. Therefore, it is no need for cost in China now.
Now the automobile market has being grown fast in China, it requires large amounts of lubricants. In additional, Chinese diet habit have everything to do with plant oil, this technology are helpful for stopping the lawbreakers to refine the oil for food.
It will bring lots of benefits for both environment and energy-saving to use regenerated oil as lubricant base oil or nonpolluting fuels.
