The definition of second oil recycling and correction has changed over the years. In the past, recycling of working oils could mean many things, in the beginning oils were used as filtration as fuel. In this way, none of the pollutants in your area are removed and it is not suitable for car use. This oil is generally used for fuel. The correction process of the second year causes all impurities, location and insolubility and return of oil as base oil to be fresh. This second refining base oil is equal to or better than some virgin base oils (produced from crude oil) and is suitable for use in cars. The second oil refining process is shorter than crude oil refining and uses less energy After draining, the oil is passed through a filter in two stages and the filtration operation is performed to separate the coarse particles and then it is pumped to the main tank and in the second stage, sedimentation operation is performed on it in such a way that in the first tank, zinc oil Water remains floating. The water collected in the floor, which also contains some oil, is drained and collected for treatment in a separate tank. At this stage, the separated oil is returned to the recycling cycle and then the burnt oil is burned. Enters the secondary settling tank to separate the remaining particles. The oil from the previous stage enters the distillation tower and due to the temperature of 400-380 degrees Celsius, the hydrocarbons in it are broken down.
At this stage, due to the presence of water vapor with hydrocarbons, the risk of combustion should be considered and water pipes should be installed to extinguish the fire. This water used for extinguishing is mixed with oil and due to improper management can cause surface and groundwater pollution. Hence, they direct it to reservoirs for purification and reuse of water and oil. Up to this point, all operations are performed physically and the next steps are performed chemically (acidification and use of bentonite soil).
In the acid method, 99-98% sulfuric acid is used and it can be said that 100% of the remaining hydrocarbons are broken down and the resulting oil has the highest purity, but the waste produced in this method (acid sludge) needs special management. Otherwise, the potential for environmental damage will be irreversible and its treatment is very costly, which has led to the recycling of burnt oil using the method of using bentonite soil. Because the management of waste from this soil (soil contaminated with hydrocarbons) is easier and therefore more cost-effective and can be used as mineral pumice in road infrastructure and buildings.
The oil in the hot distillation tower must be left for a day to cool and its temperature to reach about 248 degrees Celsius so that we can perform the next steps.
Bentonite soil is milky in color, so it does not need to be recycled and has alkaline properties, which is used for oil transparency and breaking down hydrocarbons. The more ground the paint (bentonite) is ground before use, the higher the adsorption property. This soil is sprayed as a powder by shooting system on a slightly heated oil and the soil is immediately mixed with the remaining hydrocarbons and painted , It gets dark.
In the next part, filter presses are used to separate the paint-free soil and pure oil, so that due to the pressure, pure and clear oil is removed from the filters and bentonite soil remains compacted on the filter. Panorama Global Trade Sdn Bhd Recycled base oil is eco-friendly and it generates lower carbon emissions than virgin base oil. The process of production of virgin base oil is energy intensive and it generates higher emissions of carbon, the environment across the globe is providing significant opportunity to the global recycled base oil market.
the environment across the globe is providing significant opportunity to the global recycled base oil market.
Automotive oil recycling involves the recycling of used oils and the creation of new products from the recycled oils, and includes the recycling of motor oil and hydraulic oil.
Oil recycling also benefits the environment. increased opportunities for consumers to recycle oil lessens the likelihood of used oil being dumped on lands and in waterways. For example, one gallon of motor oil dumped into waterways has the potential to pollute one million gallons of water.
Additionally, limited availability of feedstock required for the manufacture of virgin oil is driving the need for use of recycled base oil. Producing base oil from crude oil is an energy-intensive process.
A refinery needs to process 100 gallons of crude oil in order to produce one gallon of base oil. On the other hand, only 1.4 gallons of used oil is sufficient to manufacture one gallon of base oil. This makes recycling of used oil a fairly viable process for base oil manufacturing.
Recycling used oil keeps it from polluting soil and water.
Motor oil does not wear out—it just gets dirty—so recycling it saves a valuable resource.
Less energy is required to produce a gallon of re-refined base stock than a base stock from crude oil.
One gallon of used motor oil provides the same 2.5 quarts of lubricating oil as 42 gallons of crude oil.
