Homemade Centrifuge Hydraulic Oil Recovery.

Hello everyone.
My friend recently contacted me and offered me 100L of used oil that he found on the banks of a local river.
He described the oil as having a honey-like consistency, but it was not transparent. I agreed to take it, and upon inspection, I realized it was water-laced hydraulic oil.
This oil can be used as a good fuel when mixed with diesel to thin it down.
Too much water is mixed with the oil, making it unusable as fuel. To fix this, I'm using a machine I built to separate the water from the oil. And I'll have almost 100 litres of usable fuel.

It looks almost exactly the same as a marine fuel centrifuge. I imagine you must have modelled it on that. For those who see this and have not spent much time in the belly of a ship, I will explain briefly. Medium and large ships almost exclusively run on Bunker fuel, which comes in many classes and designations but they are all quite similar. Bunker fuel is a very heavy, high viscosity oil that can have the consistency of honey depending on temperature, blending factors, contaminants, etc. It is usually the bottoms product from the vacuum distillation train at a refinery combined with other residual products from other processes. The bottoms/residual products are then mixed with other lighter products to produce the required specification. This oil is heavy, dirty, sometimes even gritty, and always has some amount of water usually emulsified within it, just like the hydraulic oil Alek has here. There's usually less water by volume, but the quantity is still enough to cause serious problems on a ship at sea. So you may be wondering why a ship at sea will use such a filthy oil as fuel especially when they have no support for hundreds if not thousands of kilometres. The answer is that they have engines that are designed to run on this fuel and they do it well. Oh, and they also do it because the fuel is cheap. They do it well in no small part due to their use of the Marine Fuel Separator, Marine Fuel Centrifuge, Marine Centrifuge, Oil Centrifuge, all the same thing. They are larger versions of what Alek has built here. This design here is somewhat less complex, but appears to have the same main components and structure. A Marine Centrifuge is the main filtration component for a ship's diesel engine and without a functioning one, all the bunker fuel in the ship's belly becomes nothing more than ballast. Oh, and if you happen to ever have a bunch of waterlogged hydraulic oil, don't be a jerk and dump it by the river.

Hi, thank you for sharing. I studied in college and worked at a shipyard from 1986-89. Although I was a carpenter and joiner, we also studied shipbuilding technology. Moreover, many of my relatives and friends were seamen, so I always had a basic understanding of the industry. Regarding your comment about oil disposal, I completely agree. Please avoid dumping used oil at roadside or river banks. There are designated collection centers for used oil that we should use instead. Although oil originally comes from the earth, it is better not to put it back.

@@santeryi9 Here in the UK it gets cold in winter. When I have a bunch of waste oil, I usually take it to be recycled. But if I only have a small bit of it, I filter then blend it with diesel or kerosene and run it through my diesel heater. I’m of the opinion that it should only return to the earth as CO2. I like to feed it to Greta, not the fish.

@@captainottoI am in South Island NZ, and it also getting chilly during a winter time. I have 6 cars now and never throw away any oil, I will distill it, use as fuel and to lubricate my machinery or metall cutting tools.

Hello sir. Thank you for another addition.So for your reactors you use element of kitchen stove? How do you arrange them for example to produce 6kw?

@santeryi9 6 месяцев назад

@@moseschipisa4608The kitchen stove elements were used only in small up to 4kw Reformers to heat the evaporation retort. The 4kw elements are can be found, so really no arrangement as such, there are a double paired elements are also awailable. In my continuous machines I use a multitude of cartridge elements.
