RESID OIL

Heavy oil or slurry Oil, (also known as refinery waste oil) is oil that is too thick to economically crack or reprocess with current technologies. At least 3% percent (and in some refineries as high as 7%) of typical oil refinery production is Slurry Oil. At least a billion gallons of Slurry Oil are produced In US refineries each year. (Sun Oil Company 2005). This too has now evolved into an environmental hazard.

MARKET

  • USA REFINERY PRODUCTION
    • 20,000,000 barrels refined per day (3)
    • Average 5% is Slurry Oil = 1,000,000 per day unusable
    • 1,000,000 X 365 = 365,000,000 barrels of Slurry recovered per year
    • Value @ $50/barrel = $18,250,000,000
  • WORLDWIDE REFINERY PRODUCTION
    • 82,000,000 barrels refined per day (3)
    • Average 5% is Slurry Oil = 4,100,000 per day unusable
    • 4,100,000 X 365 = 1,496,500,000 barrels of Slurry recovered per year
    • Value @ $50/barrel = $74,825,000,000

GRC TECHNOLOGY
The SLURRY OIL is bombarded with our specific microwave frequency in the form of “molecular vibrations” which causes the “cracking” of the hydrocarbon chain. As a result, the hydrocarbon components in the SLURRY OIL are gasified. The NATURAL GAS is then collected – the remaining gases are converted into OIL.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The GRC Energy Recovery Technology operates in a vacuum. THE RESULT - nothing is released into the environment.
