Envorem develops innovative Greentech to clean oily sludges
Paid to deploy a large-scale demonstration system to the state oil company of Oman, it successfully cleaned their sludge and recovered 99% of the oil for recycling.
Envorem, the UK-based technology business, has developed an innovative new Greentech that uses a little-known property of water to rapidly and inexpensively process oil production sludges. This amazing technology, developed with assistance from the University of Brighton, uses very little energy to disassemble sludges, clean the solids and recover the entrained oil for recycling - all without using chemicals or generating emissions.
Crude and fuel oils contain contaminates comprising sediments and water that create an oily sludge. Every day, the equivalent of more than one million barrels of crude oil are discarded by the oil and maritime industries as hazardous waste at a huge environmental and financial cost.
