Integrated solvent dewaxing and deoiling systems gradually replace conventional wax separation units in refineries. The combination of solvent dewaxing and solvent or solvent-free deoiling improves operational efficiency and final products qualities. It reduces investment and operating costs. Refineries are unlocking additional value while meeting increasingly stringent market and regulatory requirements.

Atlas Copco Gas and Process industrial heat pumps help to upcycle low-temperature waste heat sources (such as river water and sewage water). With the use of a fraction of the electric power to drive the heat pump (typically 20 - 40%), and with no CO2 emitted, this upgraded waste heat can be re-used in a process with the lowest environmental impact possible.
