OIL RE-REFINING UNIT
[CODE NO. 1858]



Now-a-days  engine  oil  has  become  an  important  factor   for automobile  and  other  purposes  and since  the  prices  of  all petroleum  products  have  gone  up.   It has become extremely necessary to refine used engine oil which could be  reused  as original.    Keeping  this  view  Defense  Research  (Materials), Kanpur  has  developed  a very  simple  process  which  envisages utilization  of sulphuric acid, activated clay and filter aid  as the raw materials and the suggested reclaimed economical unit for this industry is 200 tons per annum, and estimated capital outlay is Rs.1.5 lacs.

Engine oil becomes contaminated with foreign material in service.  In  circulating systems, where a substantial quantity of  oil  is involved, it is desirable to maintain it as clean as possible  to provide maximum working efficiency and to keep wear and damage of lubricated parts to a minimum.

Reconditioning of a used oil may be accomplished by a continuous by pass  or  batch  methods or combination  of  these.   In the continuous system the entire amount of the oil from main pressure line is continuously filtered.  In the by pass system a  fraction of the total is continuously filtered.
