Sorbent and Mobile Plant for Its Production

Sorbent and mobile plant for its production are designed to eliminate liquid hydrocarbon and grease spill and clean effluent. Specialists of Subsidiary Company "Orgenergogaz" have developed Engineering and Technology enabling to eliminate oil, oil products, grease (both vegetable fat and animal fat) and other non-diluted compound spill on water and soil (primarily sand soil) and to clean effluents and gas flows.

This technology utilizes sorbent characterized by high absorption properties in relation to hydrocarbon, high absorption rate, waterproof and buoyancy.

Sorbent won gold and silver medals at "Eureka-97" and "Eureka-98" International Exhibition (Brussels). This is a proprietary design (Patent № 97114927 and 97114298), application for international patents № PCT/RU 97/00142, PCT/RU 97/00143, PCT/RU 98/00308 and PCT/RU 98/00 309.

Application

• Elimination of oil, oil products and grease spill on water and soil and cleaning of effluents.
• Reduction of toxic compound (phenol, acetone and sour gas) concentration in water and soil.
• Filling of different blocking and supporting facilities (mats, buoys etc.)

Characteristics

• Acid and alkali-resistant.
• Water-proof.
• Conductive.
• Heat-resistant at temperature up to 450°C.
• Low heat conduction.
• High sorption rate (3 mm thick oil film is absorbed in 20 second-s).
• 100% buoyancy during 100 days.
• Bulk density 2-7 kg/m³
• Sorption capacity at full saturation 

• 1 kg of sorbent adsorbs 55 kg of oil or 45 kg of petrol. 
• 1 m³ of sorbent absorbs 160-220 kg (0,2-0,25 m³) of oil or 
• 130-180 kg (0,18-0,24 m³) of petrol.

Storage time is not limited.

Actually complete sorbent absorption is not achieved therefore foregoing values should be considered as limit values. For dark and light hydrocarbons absorption range is between these limits.

SorbentType

• Standard sorbent is utilized in floating charge filters to clean effluents. It is also utilized to fill buoys, mats, sleeves and other blocking and supporting facilities to clean soil.
• Magnetic sorbent is utilized to eliminate product spill on water surface and make saturated sorbent collection easier.
• Silica gel granules used to dehumidify process air and remove liquid hydrocarbons. It is also used to dehumidify and remove moisture and gas con-densate from natural gas.

Mobile Plant for Sorbent Production in the field

According to technology of oil, oil products and grease removal from water surface it is necessary to produce sorbent on the place of spill since its storage is not cost-effective. Raw materials required to produce sorbent take 100-200 times less space.

To achieve this goal "Orgenergogaz" specialists designed mobile plants of different capacity to produce sorbent.

Characteristics 

• Capacity 10-12 kg of raw materials/ hour (3-4 m³ of sorhent/hour)
• Power Consumption 8-12 kW (220V. 50 Hz) 
• Cooling Water Flow 90 I/hour at pressure 0,5 kg/sm²
• Dimension and Weight 1270х530х1370 mm; 300 kgPlant

Components

• Reactor Control and Protection Unit
• Water Cooling
• Rack for connection to mains (for stand-alone operation generator of required power can be supplied)
• Compressor
• Hopper
• Operator work desk
• Conditioner

Option

Plant can be placed on vehicle or installed in container of required size.
