“Best of the domestic production”
The biggest industrial company of Turkey with 28,1 million tons of refining capacity and value added which it has created, Tupras and Teamwork, its business partner facilitates the petrol recovery thanks to Polat Makina decanters.
TUPRAS, the leader establishment in refining sector of our country is the seventh biggest refinery company of the Europe with its 28,1 million tons of petrol processing capacity in its four refineries located in Izmit, Izmir, Kırıkkale and Batman. Tupras and Teamwork, its business partner prefers Polat decanters in the Kocaeli Refinery. Kadir Seyrek, the Field Supervisor in Kocaeli Refinery of Teamwork says that: “Polat Makina is the best of domestic production.”
Teamwork which enables the recovery of the petrol within the sediment formed at the bottom of the petrol tanks in Tupras facilities uses 3-phased decanter of Polat Makine in both tank and waste pool cleaning. Seyrek explains that: “Before decanter phase, the sediments used to be collected in a pool for a long time and left to dry. This process may sometimes take years. Sediments left to dry naturally were sent to combustion factories. This practice did not allow the recovery of the oil in the sediments and we also lost time due to long waiting periods.”
Stating that Polat Makina is the best of the domestic production among its competitors expresses the process that: “Polat Makina decanters are high temperature resistant. We do not experience any blockages during separation. The decanter system is making the polymer itself. Everything is automated, therefore no one needs to interfere. We just feed the sludge to the pump, and it separates the sludge, the water and the oil in one move.”
Stating that they can process 18 square meters of sludge in Tupras Refinery thanks to Polat Makina decanter, Seyrek adds that they are very glad about the service network and continues his words:
“The service network of Polat Machinery is really effective. They do not only sell the products, they also provide an effective after-sales. It is also advantageous that the machines are domestic production. Because we used to work with foreign firms; however, when we experienced a problem with the machines, it used to take long time to reach them. Its operation, performance and yield is really good. I think that the companies should leave their love for the European and prefer the domestic production.
