The disposal of waste oils and sludges is exceptionally challenging. Generally, waste types are defined based on the waste product or industry. The term "waste oils" can be applied to different materials, making defining and creating a standard disposal process difficult.

Many types of waste oils also have a very high calorific value, making them highly combustible, creating a concern for operator safety. The incineration process aids in operator safety by containing volatile materials for safe and efficient disposal.

Matthews Environmental is a global leader within the combustion and incineration industry with manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States. Our equipment has become the brand of choice for the World Health Organization.

Matthews offers a wide range of incinerators designed to safely and efficiently handle the disposal of waste oils and sludges on either a batch or continuous basis while adhering to the most rigorous environmental standards.

Beyond the limited emissions, less than traditional landfills, waste oil incineration can also be converted into usable energy to help power your plant or other aspects of your facility. Energy recovery provides cost savings for your business and helps maintain environmentally friendly practices.  

Many times these systems require more technical features than our standard products. When this is the case, our team of engineers can create custom energy recovery systems to fit your business' needs.
