Centrifuges for Treating Waste Oils

Improving Markets for Waste Oils

Routine Maintenance of Centrifuges

In general, handling centrifuges is a safe process, as long as high quality equipment is used, such as anodized or PTFE coated aluminum rotors for instance, and the following conditions are met: the centrifuges and their equipment are used properly, are in an undamaged condition and maintained as recommended here. Prevention from long-term exposure to residues like salts or aggressive chemicals...

Waste oils as alternative fuel for diesel engine: A review

Increase in energy demand, stringent emission norms and depletion of oil resources have led the researchers to find alternative fuels for internal combustion engines. On the other hand, waste oils pose a very serious environment challenge because of their disposal problems all over the world. In this context, waste oils are currently receiving renewed interest. The properties of the oil derived...

Material-Efficient Utilization of Waste Oils—Biodegradability and Other Chemical Properties of Vegetable Recycling Oils

Material efficiency is nowadays an essential topic to promote the sustainable use of natural resources, waste materials and industrial by-products, in agreement with the principle of sustainable development and LCA (life cycle assessment). In this research it was determined the biodegradation of used vegetable oil based products and their important physicochemical properties for their suitabili...

Guidelines (1988) for listing specifications of centrifuges

(1) Introduction (1.1) Centrifuges available for use in the clinical chemistry laboratory vary considerably in their complexity and safety. The Expert Panel considered that guidelines for the preparation of specifications in a standard format should be available to assist with the understanding ofuse of each instrument. The nomenclature used in the guidelines is defined in Appendix A. Quantitie...
