This review systematically reports the pyrolysis of oily sludge (OS) from petroleum industry in
regards to its dual features of the energy recovery potential and the environmental risks. The …

Petroleum refining usually produces hazardous sludge accompanied by hydrocarbons and
heavy metals. Accordingly, this work evaluates the performance of a chemical agent-free …

Thermal desorption (TD) is a mainstream technology for the remediation of organic
compound-contaminated soil. By reviewing the domestic and foreign research on the …

The two-stage anaerobic digestion (AD) for biohythane production is a sustainable solution,
but it is sensitive to organic shock load that disrupts reactors and inhibits biohythane …

As a recalcitrant fraction of petroleum, heavy hydrocarbons (including aromatics, resins, and
asphaltenes) can remain in contaminated soils even after decades of weathering, thereby …

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of soil organic matter (SOM) content
levels on the biodegradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH). Batch experiments …

Pyrolysis technique is considered to have great potential in the remediation of petroleum-
contaminated soil, but it still has difficulties such as high energy consumption for the …

The reduction and harmless treatment of oily sludge is a challenging task. Microemulsion
cleaning has been demonstrated to be an effective method to treat hazardous oily sludge. In …

In this paper, phase behavior in temperature scanning of E1305/distillate fractions/water/n-
butyl alcohol microemulsion system were investigated. And the effect of surfactant …

The surface-active ILs [C16mim] Cl synthesized by combining imidazole group (C4H6N2)
and 1-chlorohexadecane (C16H33Cl) was used as surfactant to prepare ILs microemulsions …
