  • What is used oil recycling technology?
  • Used oil recycling technology has undergone significant changes over the past decade. With the newly developed re-refining technologies it is possible to produce higher quality base oil compared with the traditional and old acid clay methods. Among other methods used...
  • What is hylube & enhanced selective refining?
  • The Hylube process achieves more than 85 % lube oil recovery from the lube boiling range hydrocarbon in the feedstock. This technology has been processing and recycling used oil and oily liquids since 1955. The ‘Enhanced Selective Refining’ process uses solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), which is commonly used in the petroleum refining industry.
  • What is waste lubricating oil?
  • From above it follows that most waste lubricating oil handled is engine oil which would have gone through degradation and contaminated by metals, ash, carbon residue, water, varnish, gums, and other contaminating materials, in addition to asphaltic compounds which result from the bearing surface of the engines.
  • How many gallons of lubricants are collected a year?
  • An estimated 2.4 billion gallons of motor and industrial lubricants are sold in the United States each year, generating 1.36 billion gallons of UMO available for collection and recycling. Of this, 72% is collected, leaving the possibility that 380 million gallons of uncollected oil makes its way into the environment.
  • How to obtain high quality base oils API Group II/II +?
  • The high quality base oils API Group II/II + can be obtained by solvent extraction methods only when the reaction mixture is homogeneous. The majority of current solvent extraction technologies (Interline, Snamprogetti, Cyclon) use propane as a solvent, which has a lower selectivity to undesired species compared with MRD.
  • Why should we recycle used lubricating oils?
  • ULOs recycling instead of LO manufacture leads to a great impacts reduction. Used lubricating oils (ULOs) represent a serious problem for environment and human health due to the presence of highly harmful contaminants, being mandatory an adequate management based on efficient collection systems and treatment processes.
