The ELEVAR Oil Polishing System is one of the most environmentally friendly and cost-effective solutions available for the Used Engine and Lube Oil Recycling industry. Designed with a focus on sustainability and efficiency, it delivers superior-quality Base Oil output with minimal investment.
At the heart of this system is ELEPURE™ Catalyst, a regenerative catalyst developed by Elevar Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Using an advanced adsorption-based method, the system effectively removes impurities such as volatile compounds, foreign particles, high sulphur content, and aromatic compounds from distilled base oils, dark base oils, and dark fuels.
The ELEVAR system significantly enhances the color, oxidation stability, and reduces sulfur content of base oil and other petroleum products, producing cleaner, more valuable end products. Impressively, the ELEPURE™ Catalyst can be regenerated and reused over at least 150 cycles, ensuring long-term performance and minimal operational costs.
