QUALIFIED WASTE OILSA RE+CIRCLE originated conceptFrom waste oils.
From waste oils.
To clean diesel.
Developing modular facilities to turn marine and industrial waste oils into EN 590 clean diesel for direct use in compatible diesel vehicles. The technology’s diesel output has been TÜV-tested.
MARINE + INDUSTRIAL WASTE OILSA NEW PURPOSE FOR USED OILSOil. Refined.Waste oils → EN 590 clean diesel
THE STARTING MATERIAL
Used oil still holds
resource value.
Marine vessels and industrial operations are key sources of used lubricants and oil residues. RE+FINE focuses on qualifying these waste-oil streams for fuel production.
The starting point is a clear feedstock profile: what the oils contain, how consistently they can be supplied and how they are collected through ports and industrial networks. The facility design follows that assessment.
THE PROPOSED PATHWAY
Prepare. Refine.
Qualify the diesel.
A continuous processing approach connects waste-oil supply with the fuel specifications buyers require.
Recover its fuel value.
Apply thermal and catalytic processing, condensation and refining to recover diesel-range hydrocarbons from the prepared oil.
CONTINUOUS PROCESSINGReady for direct use.
The intended output is EN 590 clean diesel, ready for direct filling of compatible diesel vehicles. The technology’s output is TÜV-tested; each facility still needs its own quality controls and approvals.

LET’S CONNECT
Shape the next
oil-to-fuel facility.
Help shape the project at SAFE B. We’re developing three partner conversations:
- Marine and industrial oil suppliers
- Shipowners, port reception operators and industrial collectors: oil composition, available volumes and collection arrangements.
- Technology and site partners
- Processing equipment, facility locations, utilities and permitting requirements.
- Fuel offtake partners
- Product specifications, distribution needs and potential purchase arrangements.
