Foundation in petroleum reclamation
DuraTherm’s identity is firmly rooted in petroleum reclamation and reuse.  We have recovered millions of barrels of specification hydrocarbon products from wastes and are experienced in domestic and international oil recovery operations.

The company led the way in adapting centrifugal technology to oil recovery and holds more than a dozen US patents for the DuraTherm Desorption process.  DuraTherm’s desorber technology has been granted a US EPA delisting designation for refinery hazardous wastes, and the Texas City facility (formerly San Leon) was recently granted renewal of its RCRA Part B permit.

Metals recycling
Regulations mandating cleaner fuels and air emissions result in greater volumes of spent process catalysts that require management.  DuraTherm removes hazardous hydrocarbons and other undesirable characteristics from spent catalysts, producing metal manufacturing feedstock.  Our metal company affiliate brings more than two decades of experience in the intricacies and alternatives in metal recycling of both catalysts and scrap specialty process alloys.

Fixed-base and mobile services
DuraTherm offers both fixed-base and mobile services, supported by a full complement of resource recovery technology options.  However challenging your hydrocarbon waste management project may be, however large or small, DuraTherm has the experience and technology to help you resolve it.
