Production of Biodiesel from Recycled Grease Trap Waste: A Review
Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research, 2021In recent years, climate changes occurring worldwide have encouraged research into the development of eco-friendly, lowerenvironmental- impact, and more-sustainable energy sources. This may also be a solution to deal with the rapid decrease in, and depletion of, fossil resources.

Production of greases from industrial petroleum wastes
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils, 2007Petroleum-containing industrial wastes and petroleum products lost during processes (losses) are quantitatively and qualitatively basic environmental pollutants-of water, soil, and air. Some petroleum wastes from production and use of lubricants (greases, motor and industrial oils, etc.) are collected and regenerated.

Lubricating Grease Handling and Waste Management
2016Lubricating grease just like any other lubricants, its waste require careful disposal as it contain pollutants. In response to economic considerations and environmental protection, there is a growing trend of regeneration and reuse of waste lubricants. Accordingly, this work provides an overview on various ways of handling, disposal, treatment of waste

Grease Formulation from Palm Oil Industry Wastes
Waste and Biomass Valorization, 2018The treatment and disposal of petroleum-based lubricant waste presents serious challenges to the grease production industry due to its environmental impact. The use of vegetable-oil-based lubricant can solve such issues. In this study, an experimental grease formulation composed of spent bleaching earth (SBE) as the thickener, waste cooking oil (WCO ...

Enhancing biomethanation of municipal waste sludge with grease trap waste as a co-substrate
Renewable Energy, 2011Abstract Grease trap waste (GTW) presents a challenge to wastewater treatment processes due to its slow biodegradation kinetics, high oxygen demand, and risks of pipeline blockage. The objective of this work was to evaluate the feasibility of GTW as an organic-rich co-substrate to improve biomethane production in the anaerobic digestion of municipal ...

Pyrolysis of Waste Fryer Grease in a Fixed-Bed Reactor
Energy & Fuels, 2007Waste fryer grease (WFG) is an environmentally preferable option for hydrogen production. In the present work, the pyrolysis of waste fryer grease in the absence of catalyst was studied in a fixed-bed reactor. The effects of various operating parameters such as reaction temperature (650−850 °C), carrier gas (N2) flow rate (30−70 mL/min), and reactor ...

Technology of recycling waste lubricant greases
2020A scheme for the production of plastic greases based on high-boiling fractions of oil sludge and used lubricating oils, as well as polymer waste, in the form of HDPE, LDPE, and PP, that is used as a thickener, has been proposed. Based on the used lubricating oils and polymer thickeners, grease lubricants were obtained.

Evaluation of Waste Process Grease as Feedstock for Biodiesel Production
Waste and Biomass Valorization, 2013Awareness of the depletion of fossil energy reserves, the rising demand for energy in the world and the problems associated with the burning of fossil fuel encourage researchers to find alternative energy sources, such as biodiesel. The use of inedible and waste oils as feedstock for biodiesel production is an important way of converting waste into ...

Thermo-chemical extraction of fuel oil from waste lubricating grease
Waste Management, 2013This study investigated the recovery of oil from waste grease through the process of thermal degradation in an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) followed by solvent extraction. Waste high temperature metal bearing grease was dissolved in a 15 w/w% KOH solution at 80°C while being agitated at 2000 rpm using a shear action agitator for a ...
