How to dispose oil sludge? What is a good oil sludge disposal method?
Industry News / Date:April 15, 2020
Oil sludge is one of the main pollutants in petroleum and petrochemical industry. This oil sludge will not only make the land lose the function of plant growth, but also harm human health. So, the proper way to deal with the oil sludge, is what people have been looking for. Finally, with the development of technology, we found the oil sludge pyrolysis plant, which can be used to extract fuel oil from the oil sludge better. This is the better oil sludge disposal method we are looking for. Why is the oil sludge pyrolysis plant the good disposal method? Here's a comparison with traditional methods.
Oil sludge pyrolysis plant
Oil sludge disposal method 1: Incineration
Incineration refers to the reaction of organic matter under the condition of sufficient oxygen, that is, the sludge is burned directly, but when the sludge is burned, it will produce a lot of smoke, dioxins, nitrogen oxides, fly ash pollutants and other substances, which will cause pollution to the environment. Therefore, this method of treating oil sludge is not applicable.
Oil sludge disposal method 2: Landfill
The method of landfill here refers to the disposal method of burying oil sludge in the ground. In the short term, landfill method has certain advantages, such as low investment, no oil sludge exposed, and temporary treatment of oil sludge; However, in the long run, if the anti-seepage work of oily sludge landfill base is not done well, it will affect the ecological environment, pollute the land and cause great hidden trouble.

Oil sludge disposal method 3: Extraction
The principle of extraction method is "similar phase solution". The extraction method is to select the appropriate extraction agent to recover and utilize the crude oil in the oily sludge. There are some losses in the process of treating oil sludge by extraction method. In addition, the extraction agent is expensive and the extraction method is not suitable for mass production.
Oil sludge disposal method 4: Pyrolysis
The oil sludge pyrolysis plant uses the principle of pyrolysis to extract the oil from the oil sludge at high temperature. In this process, large molecules of crude oil may be cracked into small molecules of oil gas. This produces substances such as oil, soil, and water. In this way, the oil extracted can be reused, and the soil obtained can be used as raw material for building materials.
End products of oil sludge pyrolysis plant
The most important thing is to dispose oil sludge in this way, which can not only eliminate the adverse impact of oil sludge on the environment, but also make the energy in the sludge be used rationally, and the treatment process will not produce secondary pollution. There are already many people using this oil sludge pyrolysis plant to dispose the oil sludge.

Based on the above four methods, the pyrolysis method is a good oil sludge disposal method which can be feasible and reasonable to balance the environmental benefit, social benefit and economic benefit.
