A new way to extract hydrocarbons from soil, sludge and water for oil production and polluted sites remediation
A new way to extract hydrocarbons from soil, sludge and water for oil production
and polluted sites remediation
2
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
q The main objective of OHT’s technology is the extraction of hydrocarbons from polluted soil, sludge and water.
q The OHT applications address the petroleum industry and focus on 2 large markets : the treatment of Produced Water and the remediation of polluted sites & soils.
q OHT processes present clear efficiency and cost advantages when compared to existing processes.
q Access to additional funds will permit the reinforcement of OHT’s staff in order to market OHT’s products and services.
q The OHT technology and development are protected by international patents.

The remediation of polluted sites and soils: existing technologies
q On-site treatment: complicated installation, long term treatment (phyto / bio remediation) and often with final low efficiency.
q Off-site treatment: significant cost+ bad carbon footprint (require transport to plant), no revaluation of land (incineration).

Disadvantages
Processes used to treat :
q Heavy hydrocarbons
q Light hydrocarbons
Depolluted soil
Clean water
Hydrocarbons concentrated on polymer

The OHT process: an innovative technology to extract hydrocarbons
Simple hydrocarbons extraction systems based upon:
q The use of an oleophilic and hydrophobic expanded polymer (15 brands of ADSORPOL® agents),
q A process adapted to the treatment of polluted soil, sludge and water by adsorption.
q Adsorbent is certified neutral regarding the environment and living organisms. It is recyclable and controlled until its disposal.
