The production and disposal of large amounts of oil sludge are considered a most critical environmental issue in the petroleum industry. The possible conversion of oil sludge produced in a fuel oil storage tank to porous carbons by simple pyrolysis or KOH activation was investigated and the feasibility of their use to treat drinking water and to adsorb were evaluated. The oil sludge contains 80 wt%...
New porous carbonaceous adsorbents were prepared from an oily sludge generated in a fuel oil storage tank using pyrolysis with and without activation by KOH at 600 °C. The pore characteristics of the activated carbonaceous adsorbent (AC), due to the formation of micropores and mesopores structure, were considerably better than those of non-activated carbonaceous adsorbent (NA). The adsorption of Cd...
