Overview :
Sewage sludge disposal is causing serious worldwide environmental problems. Expensive landfill and ocean dumping are contaminating underground water reservoirs and irrevocably harming the sea world. Turning sludge into compost causes the pathogens and heavy metals in the sludge to pollute the very land it is fertilizing. Incineration emits hazardous gases.
Stricter global legislation for municipal wastewater treatment plants (WTP) on sludge disposal has created the urgent need for more sophisticated, environmentally friendly treatment systems.
BIOPETROL''s technology enables a breakthrough process for producing usable synthetic crude oil from sewage sludge.
The company is developing a catalyst, which synthesizes two different systems, resulting in a higher production of fuel oil. The end result is the on-site reduction of dry sludge volume from 100% to 5%.
BIOPETROL Ltd. will give WTP''s for the first time, an environmentally sound and cost-effective sludge conversion system.
