Treatment of petroleum residues through an international patent that serves the circular economy

 

HEC Group is at the forefront of oil residue management, investing heavily in research to provide tailored state-of-the-art solutions at all stages of service. Our strength lies in our specialized teams, whose technical proficiency combined with their environmental sensitivity advance our mission, ensuring not only excellent service but also sustainable and effective solutions for our customers.

Facilities

We have been recognized worldwide, by International Bodies, as leaders in oil residue treatment and hydrocarbon recovery.

We handle a wide range of liquid residues, both of marine and industrial origin.
The integrated treatment process takes place at our state-of-the-art onshore facilities, where many thousands of tonnes of oil residues have been treated since the start of operations, and focuses on the treatment of water/hydrocarbon mixtures.

For the treatment process, our latest achievement that we are implementing at our facilities is a new machinery arrangement that allows for optimal separation of high and low flash point petroleum residues into three recovered products. These benefits are achieved with minimal energy consumption.

These recovered products are :

Recovered hydrocarbons with high calorific value

Clean water meeting the strictest parameters

A dry solid phase that can be used as an alternative fuel in numerous applications
