What is Thermal Desorption?
Thermal desorption is a treatment technique used at hazardous waste sites to separate organic contaminants from feedstock like soil or sludge. It works by heating the contaminated material to high temperatures, causing the contaminants to volatilize and separate from the solid matrix.
Note: Not all thermal desorption unit (tdu unit/TDU) can handle every type of contaminated material. Factors like temperature range, capacity, and the specific contaminants present influence their suitability. Therefore, consulting the manufacturer or a qualified environmental engineer is crucial to ensure a TDU can process a specific type of raw material effectively.
Beston Thermal Desorption Unit – Oil Sludge Recycling Solution
Approximately 100 million tons of oil sludge are generated annually. They contain harmful substances like heavy metals, pathogens, and benzene, posing environmental and health risks. Therefore, Beston Group has developed thermal desorption plant (also called pyrolysis plant) to handle oil sludge from various industries, such as drilling cuttings sludge and oil-water separator sludge. It can achieve the goals:
- Resource utilization: This machine can convert oil sludge into pyrolysis oil which can serve as a sustainable fuel.
- Reduction: With our solution in place, large amounts of oil sludge are disposed of. This eases the burden on traditional disposal methods like incineration and landfills.

What Oil Sludge to Process by Thermal Desorption Unit?
Oil sludge refers to the significant amount of waste generated during exploration, extraction, and transportation processes, typically categorized into oily sludge from oilfields and oily sludge generated by the petrochemical industry, primarily from refineries.
How Does A Thermal Desorption Unit Work?
Thermal desorption equipment from different manufacturers may be designed to handle different materials, so the specific working process may have differences. Take Beston Group’s oil sludge pyrolysis plant as an example, here’s how it generally works:
- Step 1. Feeding – Convey oil sludge to the reactor with a belt conveyor.
- Step 2. Thermal desorption – Heat the reactor. Under the oxygen-free, high-temperature, and sealed reactor, oil sludge decomposes into oil gas, sand, and water. At 450 – 500 ℃, the oil gas is generated. Other output non-condensable syn-gas and solid sand will be collected separately for recycling.
- Step 3. Condensation – The oil gas enters into the condenser. A large part is liquified into pyrolysis oil.
- Step 4. Syngas recycling & dedusting – The non-condensable syn-gas enters the combuster after being water-sealed and desulphurized. The generated hot smoke gas will enter the dedusting treatment and is emitted when achieving emission standards.
- Step 4. Discharging – The discharging system is used to transport solid residues into the tank, cooled down by the water-cooling screw discharger.
Advanced Designs of Beston Thermal Desorption Unit
- Model type: We offer 4 types of options (skid-mounted, batch, semi-continuous, and continuous types) to meet different customers’ needs.
- Feeding system: Customizable configurations are available based on specific requirements. For oil content of oil sludge ＜40%, a belt conveyor is recommended; for 40% ~ 60% oil content, a shaftless screw conveyor is recommended; for＞ 75% oil content, an oil sludge pump is recommended.
- Condensing system: Options include vertical condensation and 3-in-1 condensation, each with its advantages.
- Dedusting system: Standard dedusting and high-end dedusting options are available.
- Slag discharging system: 1-3 layers of water-cooled slag discharging system is optional. Choose according to your needs.
We have matching oil distillation and purification technology, decolorization and deodorization technology, etc. This can improve the value of end products and overall profitability.
A syngas recycling system is included in the machine. Syngas produced in the thermal desorption process are recycled to heat the reactor, reducing energy costs.
The dedusting system comprises three to four layers of dust removal treatment. The exhaust gas is treated by this system to meet the emission standards. It even can meet EU standards.
Multiple designs like temperature gauges, pressure indicators, and explosion-proof valves ensure the safety of the machine and operators.
IoT monitoring technology and PLC and DCS remote control technology can be optionally selected to achieve intelligent and automated operation.
The reactor of the thermal desorption system is typically constructed with corrosion-resistant and high-temperature-resistant materials. The common choice is Q345R.
