SLUDGE TREATMENT · SEPARATE ENGINEERING ROUTE
Oily Sludge Treatment & Recovery
Tank-bottom sludge, separator sludge, API/CPI sludge and other oil-water-solid sludge from petroleum storage, refining or oil-handling systems. Waste lubricating oil is a separate liquid-waste category.
1. Oil-Sludge Sources & Feedstock
2. Oil-Sludge Treatment Equipment
3. Separated Sand / Solids, Oil & Water
Recovered oil, water and solids are tested before reuse or disposal.

Process Flow
Preliminary Capacity Range
| Configurable range | 5–200 wet t/day; thermal duty confirmed by oil, water and solids analysis |
|---|---|
| Final sizing basis | Representative samples, minimum / normal / peak flow, operating hours, dry-solids load, required cake moisture, utilities and final output route. |
Engineering Boundary
Required analyses include oil, water and solids, viscosity, particle distribution, salts, metals, sulfur, flash point, volatile components and hazardous classification. Recovered-oil yield and residue quality are confirmed only after representative testing.

Preliminary Capacity & Technical Specification Range
| Typical configurable capacity | 5–200 wet t/day or 1–50 m³/h dewatering feed |
|---|---|
| Feed basis | Sludge origin, dry solids, oil, salts, metals, pathogens, particle size and dewaterability |
| Typical outputs | Dewatered cake, dried solids, recovered oil/water where applicable, or compliant residue |
| Key utilities | Power, polymer/conditioning chemicals, wash water, thermal energy where drying is included |
Required for quotation: representative photos and samples, minimum/normal/peak feed quantity, composition and contamination analysis, operating hours, desired products and sizes, local emission/discharge limits, utilities, plot plan and required automation.
