Technoilogy has developed a new technologie for oil pre-treatment: the Organic Dechlorination.
Importance of Oil Pre-Treatment
Organic chlorine removal is one of the most challenging step of waste oil Pre-treatment. TECHNOILOGY has developed a unique process to deeply remove the organic chlorine contained in organic substrates. The company has named this process ORGANIC DECHLORINATION as it is focused on chlorine removal, but it is also effective on Phosphorous and organic Sulfur removal.
Organic Dechlorination
How it is composed
ORGANIC DECHLORINATION is composed of 2 main parts: a 1st part where reaction takes place and a 2nd part related to the removal of residue of dechlorination chemicals by hot water washing with centrifugal separators.
If Organic Dechlorination is installed downstream PTU a single or double washing stage is needed to remove any traces of dechlorination chemicals together with chlorine residue.
If Organic Dechlornation is installed upstream PTU, only reaction step is needed: the removal of dechlorination chemicals together with chlorine residue is left at the Degumming and Bleaching stages.
Organic Dechlorination Chemicals
Technoilogy has identified 3 differents families of chemicals able to remove Chlorine from organic substrates.
As said earlier, each one of them has been selected for dechlorination but also have a strong action on P and S removal.
The company identifies each family as CatalystType 1, 2 and 3 to not disclose them during patenting process.
Catalyst type 1
It was developed a few years ago for 3-MCPD mitigation in RBD Palm Oil and then applied with success on any lipidic feedstock.
Catalyst type 2 and 3
They are especially dedicated to any Pyrolysis oil and tall oil derivatives.
