Download or read book Used Lubricating Oils Re refining by Solvent Extraction written by Ahmed Samir Gabrah and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Used lubricating oil is a valuable resource, but it can be an environmental problem and a financial liability if improperly disposed of. Used oils pose hazards to human health and the environment, and therefore need to be managed safely. The mismanagement of used oil can contaminate air, water and soil. The objective of this work is to investigate the re-refining of used lubricating oils using solvent extraction process. The characteristics of used lubricating oils, utilization methods, elimination methods, environmental and human health effects were reviewed. Also, the various re-refining processes were described and a comparison between them was made to indicate the advantages and disadvantages of solvent extraction process. Experiments were carried out on used oils collected from several service stations. Used oils were subjected to preliminary treatment to remove water and dust followed by solvent extraction of base oil using different classes of solvents including alcohols, ketones and hydrocarbon solvents. Bench scale study was carried out to investigate the effect of different variables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Used lubricating oil is a valuable resource. However, it must be re-refined mainly due to the accumulation of physical and chemical contaminants in the oil during service. Refining Used Lubricating Oils describes the properties of used lubricating oils and presents ways these materials can be re-refined and converted into useful lubricants as well as other products. It provides an up-to-date review of most of the processes for used lubricating oil refining that have been proposed or implemented in different parts of the world, and addresses feasibility and criteria for selecting a particular process. The book begins with an overview of lubricating oil manufacturing, both petroleum-based and synthetic-based. It reviews the types and properties of lubricating oils and discusses the characteristics and potential of used lubricating oils. The authors describe the basic steps of used oil treatment including dehydration, distillation or solvent extraction, and finishing. They explore the combustion of used oil for use as fuel, covering chemistry and equipment, fuel oil properties, and combustion emissions. The book considers alternative processing options such as refinery processing and re-refining. It also reviews the major refining processes that have been suggested over the years for used oil. These include acid/clay, simple distillation, combinations of distillation and hydrogenation, solvent extraction, filtration, and coking processes. The book addresses economic, life cycle assessment, and other criteria for evaluating the attractiveness of an oil recycling project, examining various costs and presenting an economic evaluation method using an Excel spreadsheet that can be downloaded from the publisher’s website. The book concludes with a chapter offering insights on how to choose the most suitable process technology.

Download or read book Effects of Process Parameters on Recovery of Base Oil from Spent Lubricants Using Solvent Extraction Method written by Mohd Fadzli Yaaccob and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typically lubricants contain 90% base oil (most often petroleum fractions, called mineral oils) and less than 10% additives. Vegetable oils or synthetic liquids such as hydrogenated polyolefins, esters, silicones, fluorocarbons and many others are sometimes used as base oils. Solvent extraction is the method to eliminate the usage of high temperature or hydrogenation process in re-refining the base oil from spent lubricant oil. The main objective of this study is to recover the base oil from spent lubricants using solvent extraction method. Besides that, the effect of different solvent, the retention time and the characteristics of the extracted base oil are also determined. The raw materials that being used were spent lubricant oil and two types of solvents. These solvents are hexane mixed with potassium hydroxide in isopropyl alcohol and N-vinyl-2-pyrolidone (NNVP). During the experimental study, 200 ml of lubricant oil and 800 ml of solvents were mixed and leave to settle. After that, the mixture was filtered by vacuum pump to separate the sludge. Separation was continued using rotary evaporator to get the pure base oil. Then, the characteristics of the base oil for every mixture were analyzed. Results shows that the best solvent, is solvent 1 (Hexane + KOH + IPA) because it can recover more volume of base oil compare to solvent 2 (NNVP). Besides that, the best stirring time (retention time) for both solvent is 60 minutes. Solvent 1 is better than solvent 2 because it can recover higher volume of base oil compared to solvent 2 by 37%. As a recommendation for future work, in order to recover higher volume of base oil, the amount of potassium hydroxide (KOH) used must be increased.
