Business and the environment
The Fast Electrochemical Process (FEP) can accept a wide range of hydrocarbon input materials in the form of liquids, or solids and its purpose is to recover the hydrocarbon content in the form of a clean liquid, solid or gas. It does this by changing the molecular structure of the materials to break down and neutralise hazardous compounds - see diagram below. This enables us to use a significant volume of used materials that would otherwise be consigned to damaging incineration, chemical treatment or landfill.
Fast Electrochemical Process (FEP) operates efficiently, with low energy intensity and 'near zero' emission
Creates new clean products of value from raw materials that would otherwise be disposed of by dumping, burning or other inappropriate method
As far as possible replaces older 'energy hungry' technologies (hydrotreating) and uses significantly less energy than processes it is replacing
Helps other emerging technologies to operate with low environmental impact
For more information on applications and industries please look at the Feedstock Processing page (link).
As industrial and consumer market sectors are faced with ever-tightening environmental legislation and increasing public concern they need to be taking steps to change their business model. These companies will require advanced, environmentally focussed technologies that will reduce COâ‚‚ emissions as well as recovering value from used input or feedstock materials. This can also improve operating economics and substantially enhance their public image and license to operate.
By removing the hazardous contaminants from these used feedstocks, we are able to produce clean, low sulphur distillate that is able to meet refinery specifications. LSF has a lower energy consumption and lower emissions than refineries typically incur when processing crude hydrocarbons to produce distillates and naphtha.
Our Fast Electrochemical Process (FEP) does not use hydrogen, high temperatures or high pressures, resulting in:
lower emissions - strong improvements for the environment
lower costs - strong improvements in profit margin
