Hyrdocarbon Waste Recovery Services

BY-PRODUCT & OILY SLUDGE COLLECTIONS

By-products and off-specification liquid hydrocarbon generated by refining and other industries are purchased by FFS for further processing into fuel oils. Our large storage capacity and flexible fleet of road tankers enable FFS to manage distress situations.

FFS is establishing an oily sludge collection and processing facility in Evander. This process will take high CV waste sludges and convert it to dry solids, suitable for landfill or energy recovery while recovering the oily components as a blendstock for industrial fuels. The development is undergoing trials and expected to go commercial by the end of 2020.
