Abstract

Abstract

Ensuring the operational stability of turbine oils and extending their service life remains one of the most pressing technical and economic challenges in the energy industry. The intensive operating regimes of turbines accelerate deep oxidation processes within the oil, which leads to the accumulation of mechanical impurities, solid fractions, and moisture, thereby severely degrading the oil’s physicochemical properties. Currently, traditional regeneration methods, particularly acid-alkaline treatment, adsorption, and the use of bleaching earths, are not only technologically complex but also generate significant amounts of toxic waste, posing a direct conflict with the principles of the "green economy" and sustainable development. Despite the increasing necessity to transition to environmentally friendly technologies in industrial facilities, the efficiency of centrifugation processes for various turbine oil compositions and the potential for optimizing technological parameters have not been fully elucidated from a scientific perspective.

To address this research gap, this article analyzes the physicochemical mechanisms of regenerating turbine oils via centrifugation. The study was conducted using contaminated oil samples on an industrial scale. The proposed solution involves implementing the centrifugation process at a speed of 8,000 rpm while maintaining a temperature range of 60–75°C to reduce oil viscosity and accelerate the separation process. This technology completely eliminates the need for chemical reagents, rendering the process entirely environmentally safe. The quantitative results demonstrate that the application of this technology extends the operational resource of the oil by 2.5 times, reduces mechanical impurities by 95% and moisture content by 90%, and minimizes total industrial waste by 30–35%.

The potential impact of this research lies in its significant contribution to strengthening environmental safety and increasing energy efficiency through the implementation of waste-free technologies in the petrochemical industry. The findings serve as a fundamental scientific and practical basis for automating oil purification systems in industrial facilities, enhancing the economic efficiency of waste oil recovery, and implementing the global "green" energy strategy. Furthermore, this methodology is significant for its compliance with international standards regarding resource conservation and environmental protection. The study results provide a set of important recommendations for petrochemical engineers, technologists, and environmental safety specialists.
