LUBE OIL BLENDING PLANT ULTIMATE SOLUTIONS

INTRODUCTION:

There are two main raw materials for the production of lubricants:

• Lube base stock

• Additives

 

LUBE BASE STOCK:

​

One of the products is base stock, which processed further, provides us with base oil. The base oil is the lubricant that is used to lubricate machines. This base oil needs to have certain chemicals called additives added to it to enhance its performance as a good lubricating agent. These additives together perform diverse functions but each additive has a specific use and together they give the lubricant its character. Depending on the engine the lubricants are to be used; the ratio of base oil to additives varies from 85:15 to 90:10.

 

BASE OILS: Base oil is highly refined crude oil or in some cases a synthetic composition and they account for roughly one present of the total output of petroleum products from crude. It is essentially a by-product obtained during the refining of crude and is obtained along with the heavier ends. Different operating conditions like moisture, dust, exposure to air, high/low temperature, high pressure, corrosion, etc. dictate which base oil and which additives should be used.

​

TYPES OF BASE OILS

  • Group 1

  • Group 2

  • Group 3

  • GTL

  • SN500

  • SN 150

  • SN 70

  • BS

THE PUMPING SOLUTION:

Linus Projects Supply base oil pump and lubricant dosing pump. The gear pump is a self-priming bi-directional positive displacement rotary pump, fitted with Teflon coated dry running 'DU' bush bearing.

 

The three-piece design makes the pump easy cleanable, easy maintainable simply by removing four dome nuts on the back cover.

 

The Pump is with mechanical seal The mounting bracket converts the pump to foot mounting & facilities to align the pump with the electric motor of appropriate ratings on the base plate at the same frame height.

​

The feed rate for the base oil pump will be around 20m3/hr  to 50m3/hr at a pressure of 4 Bar to 10 Bar

FILTRATION SOLUTION:

Unfiltered liquid enters the basket housing and passes down them.

 

Solids are retained inside of basket mesh which is removed when the unit is serviced.

 

Basket Filters and strainers are normally supplied with a spring arrangement at the top of the filter element.

 

This will ensure any type of bypass & confirm the position of the basket filter even in case of reverse flow.

A fluid bypass around the basket is prevented by an optional “O” ring seal between the basket rim and the housing inside diameter.

 

For base oil basket filter provided with 200-micron mesh and For blending vessel basket filter provided with 50-micron mesh

STRUCTURAL SOLUTION:

The Platform structure design for blending vessels.

Steel platforms are self-supporting, prefabricated structures made from partially welded components.

They are made from standard rolled and cold-formed steel sections, which is reinforced using stabilizing rods with tensioners.

In order to use the platforms, it is necessary for the space to have a height of at least 4.5 meters. Our design has a minimum ceiling height of 2.1 meters.

It is possible to equip the platforms with various accessories, such as elevators, chutes, mesh, labels, lighting, etc.

We provided 2mt mechanical hoist on the platform

AUTOMATIC DRUM AND IBC PACKAGING SOLUTION:

Linus Projects Supply sophisticated design Palletize drum filling or IBC packaging machine.

This Automatic Palletized Drum Filling Machine is designed to handle drums or IBCs with bungs and caps removed. This machine will convey, visually locate the fill holes, fill then discharge a full pallet of drums automatically. It will do the same for an IBC. The next downstream station will automatically place each bung and cap onto every drum.
Depending on the product and volume delivered, this machine can fill each 55-gallon drum in less than one minute.
