Functional-cost analysis of methods of regeneration of used mineral motor oils

Abstract

The main methods of regeneration of used mineral motor oils, in particular physical, chemical, physicochemical methods are considered. The functional-cost analysis of methods of regeneration of the used mineral motor oils by means of branch experts is carried out. Functional-cost analysis is a method of pairwise comparisons and involves the process of ranking the selected characteristics according to the degree of importance (weight). To do this, each characteristic is assigned a certain index. As a result of the functional-cost analysis, the expediency of using technologies of vacuum distillation and hydrocracking of used oils in the processes of regeneration of used oils has been established.
