A Sustainable Waste Oil Refining Solution

In today’s world, where environmental awareness is increasing and industries are striving toward resource conservation, waste oil recycling plays a vital role in building a sustainable future. The improper disposal of waste oils from industries, transportation, and automotive sectors leads to environmental hazards and resource wastage. Advanced recycling systems, such as the HERING WORP® system, address this need by converting used oils into high-quality base oils through non-cracking evaporation technology. This approach not only saves resources but also minimizes the ecological footprint of oil refining.

Importance of Waste Oil Recycling

Environmental Impact

Waste oils contain harmful substances like heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and other contaminants that pose serious environmental risks. When these oils are discarded improperly, they can pollute soil and water, severely harming ecosystems and human health.

Economic and Environmental Sustainability

Adopting waste oil recycling systems like HERING WORP® is essential to reduce the ecological impact and achieve economic sustainability. Recycling helps recover valuable base oils, reducing reliance on fresh oil production. This is both cost-efficient and environmentally sustainable. Through waste oil recycling, industries can lower production costs, reduce their carbon footprint, and avoid environmental degradation.

Key Benefits:

Reduces carbon emissions
Conserves natural resources
Minimizes hazardous waste

The HERING WORP® System: A Technological Innovation

The HERING WORP® system revolutionizes the recycling of waste oils through its innovative Non-Cracking Evaporation (NCE) technology. This advanced method bypasses traditional cracking processes, ensuring the oil’s molecular integrity is maintained, which leads to higher-quality base oils and a more eco-friendly operation.

Non-Cracking Evaporation (NCE) Technology

NCE technology employs vacuum distillation, which reduces the boiling point of hydrocarbons without the need for molecular cracking. By subjecting the oil to vacuum conditions, the hydrocarbons separate without damaging the oil’s quality, leading to superior base oils.

Advantages of NCE Technology:

High Yield: The system recovers around 70-80% of the input volume as high-quality base oils.

Energy Efficiency: Light fractions generated during the process are recycled as fuel, lowering energy consumption.

Environmental Impact: The system eliminates the formation of unsaturated hydrocarbons and carbon deposits, reducing pollution.

Comparison with Traditional Cracking Systems

Traditional systems break down hydrocarbon molecules, producing lower-quality oils that require more intensive post-processing. These systems are also energy-intensive and emit more pollutants, contributing to environmental degradation.

In contrast, HERING WORP®, with its NCE technology, avoids these pitfalls by ensuring high oil stability and minimizing environmental impact.

Environmental Benefits of the HERING WORP® System

The HERING WORP® system stands as a sustainable solution for waste oil recycling by drastically lowering the environmental footprint of waste oil disposal. Through energy efficiency and resource conservation, this system plays a crucial role in environmental protection.

Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions

By diverting waste oils from incineration or landfilling, the system significantly lowers emissions of carbon dioxide and methane. This prevents contamination and conserves energy, resulting in both environmental and economic gains.

Resource Conservation

Oil recycling through the HERING WORP® system requires fewer resources compared to crude oil refining. While 160 liters of crude oil are needed to produce 2.5 liters of lubricant, only 4 liters of waste oil are needed to generate the same output. This makes recycling far more resource-efficient.

Applications Across Industries

The HERING WORP® system can be applied across various industries, providing versatile, customizable solutions.

Automotive and Transport Sectors

The automotive industry generates significant waste oil, which can be efficiently recycled through HERING WORP®. This provides economic benefits and ensures a continuous supply of high-quality base oils for vehicle maintenance.

Industrial Machinery

Industries that use large volumes of high-viscosity oils, such as those in turbines or industrial machinery, benefit greatly from HERING WORP® by reducing operational costs and maintaining oil quality.

Customization and Scalability of the HERING WORP® System

The HERING WORP® system offers several customization options to suit various industrial needs.The system can handle different levels of throughput capacity, from small-scale operations to large recycling plants, making it adaptable for businesses of all sizes.

Sulfur Reduction and Oil Stabilization

Additional features like sulfur reduction and oil stabilization ensure the system can meet specific industry standards, further enhancing its appeal as a reliable, high-quality solution.

In a world driven by the need for sustainability and environmental responsibility, the HERING WORP® system offers an eco-friendly, economically viable solution for waste oil recycling. The use of NCE technology ensures high-quality base oils while significantly reducing environmental impact. By adopting such advanced systems, industries can make significant strides toward a circular economy, where resources are reused, and waste is minimized.
