Waste Lubricating Oil Treatment by Adsorption Process Using Different Adsorbents
Waste lubricating oil re-refining adsorption process by
different adsorbent materials was investigated. Adsorbent materials
such as oil adsorbent, egg shale powder, date palm kernel powder,
and acid activated date palm kernel powder were used. The
adsorption process over fixed amount of adsorbent at ambient
conditions was investigated. The adsorption/extraction process was
able to deposit the asphaltenic and metallic contaminants from the
waste oil to lower values. It was found that the date palm kernel
powder with contact time of 4 h was able to give the best conditions
for treating the waste oil. The recovered solvent could be also reused.
It was also found that the activated bentonite gave the best
physical properties followed by the date palm kernel powder.
