Slope Oil

Slop Oil is a recovered petroleum mixture generated during refinery operations, tank cleaning, drainage and petroleum handling. It contains varying proportions of hydrocarbons, water, sediments and other residues. Its appearance can range from light yellow or brown to dark black, depending on its source and the treatment applied.

Slop Oil is commonly processed to recover usable hydrocarbons. Treatment may include settling, water separation, centrifugation and filtration to reduce moisture and suspended solids. The recovered oil may then be returned for refinery processing or evaluated for suitable blending and industrial fuel applications.

Industry using it :

1. Heavy Machinery & Kilns : Can be used as fuel for rotary kilns, brick kilns, and industrial dryers.
2. Fuel for Industrial Boilers & Furnaces : Used as a low-cost alternative fuel in industries like cement, steel, textiles, and bricks.
3. Industrial Fuel Blending : Use treated recovered oil as a blending component when it meets the required fuel specification.
4. Industrial Heating : May use treated, tested oil in compatible boilers, furnaces and process heaters where permitted.
