Oil Treatment

NIMC Slop Oil Treatment, Oil Recovery, Waste oil Disposal, Bio-Remediation View Video of the Mk iii Plant Proof Of Oily Waste Collection Enviromental Impact Assesment Firstly Emulsion and separation takes place. The next  procedure followed is to use Decanters for the in feed which deals with the solid content of Slop oil, then a disk stack self-cleaning centrifuge can be used downstream to decanter and polish either oil or water phase. Oily water treatment will reduce the free oil content in water to up to 5 ppm If this slop oil is treated, not only disposal costs can be reduced but profit can also be generated with the oil phase recovered from the slop and fired into the Turbine. As the oil as well as water content can vary from 10 to 90 % and the solid content can vary from 1 to 10 % either disk stack centrifuges or decanters can be used for the treatment of slop oil. The PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT Act - Standards of Performance for VOC Emissions From Petroleum Refinery Wastewater Systems, Sec. 60.691  has been adhered to during design investigation. Also included will be the MARPOL environmental petroleum guidelines and US EPA emission standards. THE PROBLEM OUR SOLUTION Emulsions exist throughout the crude oil industry and are a major waste and operational problem if not efficiently processed or managed. Emulsion problems start small and grow large. Low volume, easy-to-treat slop grows into high volume, hard-to-treat sludge. Converting emulsions and sludge into clean oil and water. Converting emulsions and sludge disposable solids. Automated, continuous, compact and reliable operation requiring minimal manpower A patented, cost-effective, easy to implement add-on technology A proven new technology that provides a solution to turning slop into combustible fuel for NIMC partnership Gas/Oil Turbines   Benefits Gathering Slop oil or discarded industrial oil or heavy refinery discarded oil will bring the costs of operating a Power Plant to a very low percentage compared to purchasing standard Gas, Fossil fuel, Diesel etc When including a Bunker operation the ideal environment is created because of the unique supply of  burning material. Having the Oil Eco Treatment Plant near the Walvisbay harbour enables the use of road vehicles  (fuel tankers) that collect Slop oil from the Fishing Industry and Commercial Anchorage. The Disposal process of the Slop oil, discarded oil will be in line with the Standards of Performance for VOC Emissions From Petroleum Refinery Wastewater Systems, Sec. 60.691. Thus placing no risk on the environment. NO OIL gets burned of fired at this level, no airborne emissions!! Oil Recovery Bio-Remediation Process Regulations under USEPA  ERCO is unique in that it specializes only in the treatment of oily “solids” waste utilizing the method of Compost Bioremediation. This method allows for the decommissioning of oily solids through a natural process of hydrocarbon decomposition by microbial action. The finished product, after the removal of oil, is a commercial grade product if declassified under the USEPA 503 Rule. By meeting this USEPA specification the compost material can be bagged and market through the Agriculture and Ornamental Horticulture business sectors. The process Composting of oily solids requires approximately 4 months to reach declassification. Oily waste solids having an oil content in the range of 5% to 50% are suitable for composting. This is similar to a farming operation where rows are laid out and tended to throughout the oil decomposition period to insure optimum microbial activity. This involves row building, the addition of nutrients and most importantly periodic watering and the daily induction of oxygen by custom designed equipment. Recording keeping is paramount to track all incoming oily waste and outgoing treated compost to comply with audits and regional environmental regulations. This also involves analytical and field laboratory testing to benchmark initial and final oil content and trace element measurements required for closure. ERCO provide the know-how, the specialized equipment and/or the full services to operate the Waste Facility handling all composting requirements at a fixed rate per m³     www.n-imc.com  © 1996 — 2007 NIMC (Pty) LTD, All Rights  reserved
