There are a wide amount of applications for our VacuDry^® process within the oil and gas industry. A large variety of wastes and by-products that are generated in the oil & gas production chain can be treated effectively and sustainably. In past decades, numerous thermal desorption processes have been implemented worldwide, using a variety of heating chamber designs to separate hydrocarbons from the mineral solids. Such standard TDUs work under atmospheric pressure which can lead to safety risks, high energy consumption, larger emissions and limited flexibility regarding altering feed materials. Due to its unique design, the complications outlined above are avoided throughout the VacuDry^® process. When it comes to treating standard oily wastes, mercury-containing waste streams, NORM, and especially for the recovery of highly valuable drilling fluids from drill cuttings; our vacuum thermal desorption process (i.e. vacuum distillation) is economically unbeatable.

Production of oil and gas is usually accompanied by the usage and production of large volumes of water in several applications. The industry recognizes its dependency on water and is focused on minimizing its use, enhancing reuse and recycling opportunities, and improving treatment technologies and disposal options. Lenntech provides sustainable complete solutions for water and waste water treatment in oil and gas industry considering a wide range of technologies and strategies.

Wherever oil is produced, processed, transported or stored, our clients face large amounts of oily waste in many different forms. Our VacuDry technology allows efficient and environmentally friendly treatment of all oily waste streams within a single plant. Due to the conditions under which the waste is treated (low temperature, vacuum and nitrogen blanketing), the recovered oil can then be reused after treatment.

Industrial and municipal waste contaminated with fat – a frequent problem for companies maintaining wastewater network infrastructure and municipal wastewater treatment facilities. We recommend the use of GREASOLUX fat dissolvent cartridges to avoid the problems of pipeline chocking, equipment damage, offensive odors, formation of filamentous bacteria, poor wastewater treatment results, poor sedimental properties of activated sludge. GREASOLUX – is a cartridge that slowly dissolves in water, enriched with special fat dissolvent microorganisms and enzymes. GREASOLUX – is an especially efficient product for low cost solutions to problems caused by fat: only few strategically placed cartridges will remove or minimize the problems caused by fat.

Proper waste treatment and free-flowing plumbing lines are critically tied to one another. Of the many products marketed which claim to aid plumbing problems, MICROCAT® products are unique. They offer a combination of micro organisms, enzymes (biochemical catalysts) and other ingredients which act together naturally to soften, loosen, remove and break down greases, fats and oils in plumbing lines, sewer systems, pump stations and treatment plants, thus keeping them clean and odour free. Developed through the years, MICROCAT® products, whether dry or liquid are capable of safely and effectively loosening and digesting the troublesome substances, which clog drainage systems and cause odours. When used on a regular basis, MICROCAT® products can result in savings on operational and maintenance costs.

Compressor condensate wastewater is generated during hot and humid weather as part of the process of condensing shop air to provide compressed air for machine tools. Typically, these waste streams are transparent with a slight floating layer of oil. Compressor Condensate wastewater cannot be simply flushed down the drain. Many companies choose to avoid the headaches of labor-intensive wastewater treatment technologies such as chemical treatment or filtration and simply pay to haul the wastewater. This however, can become quite expensive.

Detection of hydrocarbons within both water sources and effluent intake to Waste Water Treatment Works is an increasing requirement. The UviLux Hydrocarbon fluorometer detects hydrocarbons in water at very low concentrations. This in-situ fluorometer provides a rugged sensor which can be deployed in a wide variety of configurations. The UviLux is part of the Lux range of CTG fluorometers, and can be provided with a number of options with regard to signal protocols, and has available accessories to enable in-flow monitoring as well as inclusion within portable systems for taking measurements in the field.

AMBAR has supplied oil skimmers to the steel industry for over 25 years. The most common application for the Oil Mop skimmer is the removal of oil and grease form scale pits. Other applications include cooling ponds, retention ponds, in-ground sumps and waste water treatment pits. The advantage that AMBAR Environmental`s Oil Mop skimmers have over its competition is its versatility in a wide variety of applications. With the use of Tail Pulleys or Rollers, Rope Mop can be routed to provide excellent coverage of a pit, pond or tank. The mop can always be routed to the area where the oil collects the most.

MEGTEC’s experience and application know-how are at your command for tough drying and web handling applications such as slow-drying coatings and materials or thin film coating and laminating. Dryers can be equipped with a wide variety of nozzle configurations ranging from simple slot nozzles to sophisticated Coanda-style air bars and patented air foil systems. A full range of heat sources are available including steam, direct and indirect gas-fired, thermal oil, electric, hot water and IR. In addition, the air handling systems can be integrated into the dryer enclosure or stand-alone for remote installation. When the process requires pollution control systems for solvent-based applications, MEGTEC also offers regenerative thermal oxidizers, solvent recovery, distillation and purification systems. MEGTEC also offers waste heat recovery packages to “close the energy loop” between pollution controls and the process, in order to reduce production costs and increase customer profits

The process of electricity generation from fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas is water-intensive. Between 40-50% of all water abstracted and used in developed countries is used in the generation of electricity. Thus, a reliable, abundant and predictable source of raw water supply to a power plant is a critical factor in site selection. Water supplies are required to provide various process waters for the following essential main purposes such as make-up water, cooling water for steam turbine condensers, and auxiliary plant cooling water.

The primary application of modern water treatment technology is to maintain the integrity and performance of the power plant. Critical plant applications have water purity or conditioning requirements that must be adhered to for safe, reliable and efficient power generation.

Experience has shown that integration of water technology treatments with power plant design can be very important in reducing operational problems and component failures 

At power plant worldwide there are increasing limitations on water availability and environmental restrictions on discharges. This is expected to promote measures for water conservation and to have an increasing influence on water treatment decisions. At power plant, the recycling of internal wastewater streams can extend from the recovery of individual high-quality waste streams, which can be reused either directly or after only limited treatment, through to the development of fully integrated water/wastewater treatment systems for zero liquid discharge. However, the application of reuse schemes requires site-specific assessment, as not all waters may be viable options for recovery.
