Evapo-incineration
Evapo-incineration
Type of treatment: Treatment
Description:This technique combines incineration and physico-chemical treatment. It involves thermal cracking, during which the aqueous phase of the oil-water mixture vaporises:
· Water evaporates (water in the vapour phase is treated by high temperatures in order to remove the residual organic phase).
· An oil condensate forms that can easily be incinerated.
Waste:
Liquid waste (Oily water, oil with water)
Situation/Possibilities in the country:
May be implemented in the country.
Interest:
Complete elimination of the waste.
Entry criteria:
Can manage solid waste and sediment.
Operational constraints:
Depends on the type of machine used.
Impacts:
Minimal when processes are well managed and monitored regularly.
Legal constraints:
Refer to incineration and atmospheric releases legislation.
Special authorisation may be required for such work.
Efficiency:
High with latest installation.
Cost:
CAPEX: very high if no existing installation.
OPEX: to define depending on installation. 75 to 300 euros / m3 (Source: Koller)
