Screw conveyors can be an effective solution for dealing with waste oil in various applications, this article will introduce you to the application of screw conveyors in oil waste
Oil and Gas: Screw conveyors are used in the oil and gas industry to move drilling waste such as cuttings and mud away from the drilling site for disposal or recycling.
Oil Refining: Oil refineries use screw conveyors to transport waste from the oil refining process, such as spent catalyst and filter cake, to disposal areas.
Food Processing: Screw conveyors are used in the food processing industry to convey oily waste such as grease and oil away from processing equipment for disposal or recycling.
Manufacturing: Screw conveyors are used in manufacturing facilities to move oily waste such as metal shavings and cutting fluids away from production areas for disposal or recycling.
Automotive: Screw conveyors are used in the automotive industry to transport oily waste such as metal shavings and coolers from production areas for disposal or recycling.
Waste Management: Screw conveyors are used in waste management facilities to transport oily waste such as sludge and grease to disposal areas or treatment facilities.

Heavy-Duty Bearing & Drive System: Designed with oversized bearings and a robust drive unit to handle high loads and continuous operation in demanding environments.
Easy Clean-in-Place (CIP) Design: Features removable covers and easy-access clean-out ports, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime.
Case 1: Oil Refinery – Spent Catalyst Conveying
Challenge: A refinery needed to transport hot, abrasive spent catalyst from the reactor to a disposal silo, with strict zero-leakage requirements.
Solution: We provided a customized DH-OS-300 screw conveyor with a water-cooled jacket, 316L stainless steel construction, and a gas-tight sealing system.
Result: Achieved continuous, leak-free operation for over 2 years, reducing manual handling risks and maintenance costs by 30%.
Case 2: Drilling Site – Oily Cuttings Transfer
Challenge: An onshore drilling site required a reliable method to move oily cuttings from the shaker to a thermal desorption unit, handling varying moisture content.
Solution: Supplied a heavy-duty DH-OS-400 inclined screw conveyor with a variable-frequency drive and abrasion-resistant lining.
Result: Improved material flow consistency, reduced blockages, and increased overall processing efficiency by 25%.
