Globally, the oil and gas industry produces a large volume of waste in the form of produced
water, oil sludge, and flue gases that can pose a negative impact on environment. As such …

Oily sludge is one of the most significant solid wastes generated in the petroleum industry. It
is a complex emulsion of various petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs), water, heavy metals, and …

Pyrolysis and combustion have become effective technologies for oily sludge treatment. This
paper firstly investigated N/S/Cl pollutants during pyrolysis and combustion of oily sludge in …

The activities of the oil industry have several impacts on the environment due to the large
amounts of oily wastes that are generated. The oily sludges are a semi-solid material …

Pyrolysis of tank bottom oil sludge was investigated to summarize the pyrolysis
characteristics through analyzing the change of mass loss, pyrolysis gas compositions in …

Pyrolysis of oil sludge first by thermogravimetry/mass spectroscopy (TG/MS) and then in a
horizontal quartz reactor with an electrical laboratory furnace under different pyrolysis …

The pyrolysis performance of oil sludge (OS) was studied using a thermal gravimetric
analysis apparatus and a tube furnace reactor. The oil recovery rate of OS pyrolysis showed …

The pyrolysis of oil sludge with addition of oil sludge ash, Al 2 O 3, Fe 2 O 3, CaO and SiO 2
was carried out under inert condition employing a stirred tank reactor to investigate the …

The combustion behaviors of three oil sludge samples and their corresponding semicoke
prepared from a laboratory-scale pyrolysis/gasification reactor were investigated using a …

In this work, an experimental study of flash pyrolysis of oilfield sludge in different operation
conditions was carried out under inert condition in a rotary kiln reactor. The effects of …
