Petroleum coke is often shortened as pet coke. Petroleum coke or pet coke is a product obtained from oil of all kinds during the oil refining process. Petroleum coke is a carbon-rich solid originating from petroleum refining and is obtained by…
The remediation effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) oxidation and surfactant-leaching alone or in combination on three typical oilfield sludges were studied. The removal efficiency of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) of Jidong, Liaohe and Jiangsu…
Surfactant-based technologies have been studied for the treatment of radioactive waste containing isotopes of radium. Nevertheless, the use of combined processes to remove radium from radioactive oil sludge is scarce in the literature. The objective…
Hazardous oil sludge (OS) poses a great challenge to the environment, whereas conventional treatment methods (i.e., incineration or pyrolysis-incineration) are relatively less value-added and will bring about air pollution problems. To realize the…
Oil sludge disposal has recently become a challenge because of its large reserves and high toxicity. Smoldering combustion is a new approach for organic waste treatment where organic waste is efficiently destroyed with minimal energy input. This…
Polymer-containing oil sludge inevitably was produced during oilfield exploitation, which caused serious environmental pollution and resource waste. In this study, thermochemical cleaning method was firstly applied to treat oil sludge from Shengli…
The release of petroleum hydrocarbons in the form of oil sludge poses a serious threat to people and the environment. At present, biodegradation of oily sludge is regarded as one of the most promising harmless treatment technologies, where the…
Thermochemical conversion of oil sludge (OS) residues from crude oil refinery was studied as an alternative for treatment and energy recovery before OS final disposal. A simulation model for OS gasification was developed and validated by using…
