ABOUT SLUDGE RECOVERY SYSTEM

Nuova Saimar S.R.S.® operates 24/7, with no toxic emission and chemicals, completely safe and eco‐friendly.

The S.R.S.® Sludge Recovery System crushes the sludge and fluidize the hydrocarbons, by using the same product that has generated the sludge,
and recovering up to the 98% of the hydrocarbon contained.
It operates in a closed loop, granting the maximum personnel safety and environment protection.
Sludge is crashed by special rotating nozzles (called “Jet Washers”) installed on the tank roof, that direct high-pressure jets on all the tank internal surfaces.

While liquefying, hydrocarbon gets separated from sludge thanks to 3 combined actions:
Mechanical: given by the 5/6 bars of the oil jet from the jet washers;
Chemical: given by the lower specific weight;
Physical: by heating the oil, viscosity is reduced.

Inert remaining in the tank bottom after S.R.S.® operations are usually made of 1/3 of water, 1/3 of sediments and 1/3 of hydrocarbon.
The high percentage of hydrocarbon recovery allow the operators to enter the tank without any health risk, as no trace of hydrogen sulphide remains.

ADVANTAGES

Using a no-man entry technology such as Nuova Saimar S.R.S.® has countless advantages

ECONOMICAL BENEFITS

Recovery value can be equal or even higher than the cost of cleaning itself: all the hydrocarbons recovered are returned to the client.

MINIMUM DISPOSAL COSTS

Waste disposal is fast and cheap thanks to the incredible reduction of product waste:

ONLY 5 ÷ 15% WASTE DISPOSAL

TIME SAVING

The S.R.S.® allows a MINIMUM TANK DOWNTIME: an average of 110 – 130 m³ of sludge is processed per day

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

S.R.S.® is an eco-friendly system that avoids pollutions and grants workers safety.

S.R.S.® IS 100% SAFE.

When the Client turns to Nuova Saimar S.R.S.®, the recovered oil and the saving in disposal costs balance the initial tank cleaning costs, in addition to the inestimable value of workers safety.

Therefore: Even though automatic cleaning initially appears to be more expensive than the traditional method, the result, at the end of the operations, is a NET GAIN for the Client.
