Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9407798A1] Process to re-refine used oils, wherein the oils (A1) are initially subjected to a pretreatment (A) with a basic reagent (A2), then to a first preflash treatment (B) to eliminate the water (B1) and the most volatile fractions (B2) contained therein, and finally to a combined treatment (C) of fractional distillation and of purification to eliminate the high polymers and heavy metals, carried out into a single filled-type column (21), in order to obtain one or more fractions of re-refined oils (C3). The separation of the high polymers and heavy metals takes place, together with a cut of very heavy and viscous oils, from the bottom of the column (21) by means of a cyclone device (23). The re-refined oils (C3) are then subjected to a suitable decolorization treatment (D) and can be used as base oils for the production of lubrification oils.
