Spent Oils Plant

Spent oils plant aims to re-process spent lube oils for the production of various grade of base oils.

Usually, traditional processes in this segment can secure either high yield or high quality, but rarely both at the same time. More specifically, processes which target high-yield require clay treatment to reduce metal content resulting in the production of toxic waste. On another hand, while pursuing higher quality lube oils, traditional processes might need the use of a hydrofinishing step at the expense of lower yield.

Revivoil™ is a game changer, achieving both high quality and high yields, effectively offering a higher ROI as compared with previously mentioned traditional processes.

Re-process spent oils for the production of various grade of base oils ready to market.

The objective of propane deasphalting is to produce bright stocks for downstream treatments. In practice, residue is extracted with propane to maximize yield of deasphalted oil (DAO) with acceptable impurities and metals levels.

Revivoil™

Revivoil™ is Axens Solutions' optimum route to lube bases from spent oil. This process, developed jointly by Axens and Itelyum (formerly Viscolube Italiana SpA), goes far to put spent oil rerefining on the fast track to success. Apart from the usual problem of collecting spent oil, traditional spent oil processing has been an underachiever when it comes to quality, yields, ecology and economics.

Safe, simple and environmentally friendly, Revivoil™ technology has the ability to re-process spent oils for the production of various grade of base oils ready to market.

Catalysts

Residue Hydrotreating Catalysts

RDS units include a number of reactors in series, each with a dedicated function. These units require a tailored catalyst system characterized by three reaction zones where the types and quantities of each catalyst are determined as a function of the feedstock difficulty and the objectives of the unit.

Furnaces

Furnace(s) is a key equipment considering the need for optimal operation of unit. Thanks to an extensive design experience with feedbacks from operators and a complete knowledge of this process, Heurtey Petrochem Solutions provides an unparalleled service such as these following features:

High fuel efficiency (94%+) depending on fuel S level
Fully Modularized
Lowest Emission (95%+ reduction with emission reduction technology)
Optimized Plot Plan

Environmental Systems & Services

Energy efficiency awareness can lead to tremendous economic and environmental benefits. Expert studies show that there is still vast untapped energy efficiency potential of up to 25% of heavy industry in Europe alone.

Catalyst Protection Systems

Impurities, fines, gums, scales and inorganic matter can be carried over with the feed. While catalyst performance is steadily increasing due to constant innovation, they are often more sensitive to poisoning.

Reactor Internals

In today’s complex environment, refineries and petrochemical plants around the world need advanced solutions to reach operational excellence. In units featuring fixed-bed reactors, the use of high-efficiency reactor internals are essential to help achieve this goal.

Selectopropane

The residue from spent oil Rerefining is sent to the optional Selectopropane unit if recovery of brightstock and asphalt are desired.
