Handling oily sludge is a critical challenge for many industries, including oil refineries, drilling operations, and industrial cleaning processes. GN Separation‘s Oily Sludge Treatment System offers a comprehensive solution designed to efficiently process and manage oily sludge, turning it into valuable resources and minimizing environmental impact.

Complete Oily Sludge Treatment Process

GN Separation’s Oily Sludge Treatment System is engineered to handle the entire treatment process of oily sludge, providing users with a robust and reliable solution. Our system encompasses several key stages:

1. Sludge Extraction
   Oily sludge is initially extracted from the sludge pit using GN’s solid vacuum pump or an excavator. This step is crucial for gathering the sludge for further treatment.
2. Heating & Conditioning
   The extracted sludge is then transferred to a pre-mixing tank where it undergoes stirring, pre-mixing, and conditioning. This heating process prepares the sludge for effective separation.
3. Coarse Particle Screening
   Following heating and conditioning, the sludge is treated using a vibrating screen to separate coarse particles. This ensures that larger debris is removed before further processing.
4. Secondary Heating & Conditioning
   The finer particles undergo a secondary conditioning process with the addition of chemical agents. This step strips the oil from the solid phase, allowing it to enter the liquid phase.
5. Solid-Liquid Separation
   The conditioned sludge is then pumped to a two-phase decanter centrifuge. This equipment separates the solid sludge from the liquid, with the resulting solid sludge having less than 2% oil content. This solid can then be further processed or biodegraded.
6. Three-Phase Separation
   Finally, the separated liquid is treated in a three-phase disc separator. This stage separates the oil into a saleable product, extracts usable washing water, and discharges the remaining solid through a flushing pump.

Applications in Various Industries

GN Separation’s Oily Sludge Treatment System is versatile and applicable in various scenarios:

• Oil Refineries: Efficiently manages and processes oily sludge generated during refining operations, reducing waste and recovering valuable resources.
