Project title: OIL AND PETROCHEMICALS RECOVERY BY DIRECT LIQUEFACTION OF SEWAGE SLUDGE
Company name : BIOPETROL LTD.
TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
Petrochemicals
KEY WORDS

Crude Oil, Petrochemicals, Wastewater Treatment Plants, Dry
Sludge, Environmentally Friendly
PROJECT SUMMARY
Sewage sludge disposal is causing serious worldwide environmental
problems. Expensive landfill and ocean dumping are contaminating
underground water reservoirs and irrevocably harming the sea
world. Turning sludge into compost causes the pathogens and heavy
metals in the sludge to pollute the very land it is fertilizing.
Incineration emits hazardous gases.
Stricter global legislation for municipal wastewater treatment
plants (WTP) on sludge disposal has created the urgent need for
more sophisticated, environmentally friendly treatment systems.
BIOPETROL's technology enables a breakthrough process for
producing usable synthetic crude oil from sewage sludge.
The company is developing a catalyst, which synthesizes two
different systems, resulting in a higher production of fuel oil.
The end result is the on-site reduction of dry sludge volume from
100% to 5%.
BIOPETROL Ltd. will give WTP's for the first time, an
environmentally sound and cost-effective sludge conversion
system.
