Types of waste we handle

We handle nearly all types of industrial wastewater from both the maritime and land-based sectors, thanks to our wide range of treatment methods. Nordic Oily Waste is Denmark’s most versatile wastewater treatment provider, able to accept a broad spectrum of waste types due to our specialized facilities. 

At our facilities in Esbjerg og Aarhus we receive a wide variety of EWC codes while our Copenhagen kan modtage det affald, som vi dokumenteret kan behandle. Derfor kan vi varetage stort set alle affaldstyper i flydende form. Skulle du have en affaldsfraktion, som vi ikke behandler, kan vi sørge for behandling gennem vores store netværk. Det betyder, at vi kan hjælpe dig med at finde en løsning, uanset hvilken type flydende affald, du skal have behandlet.

Treatment methods

You always get the best possible treatment and/or recycling of your wastewater with us. All our facilities use BAT (Best Available Technology). 

We operate Denmark’s largest chemical-mechanical facility with bioprocesses. Across our sites, we apply methods such as: ultrafiltration, evaporation and chemical-mechanical belt filtration Inddampning er en meget sikker behandlingsmetode til svært forurenet spildevand, hvor tungmetaller, giftige stoffer og sedimentrester fanges i slammet, som efterfølgende afbrændes. Ultrafiltrering er en effektiv behandlingsproces til mindre forurenede fraktioner. 

Our skilled operators manage every step, from sampling to treatment adjustments, ensuring each unique load is handled correctly. Initial and ongoing sampling ensures safe and accurate treatment based on each load’s specific composition.

Hvert eneste læs affald har sin helt egen unikke sammensætning, og derfor er det nødvendigt at tage prøver både ved modtagelse og undervejs i processerne for at sikre korrekt og sikker behandling. 

All work is performed under strict quality control within our ISO-certified processes, ensuring maximum environmental protection and compliance.

Focusing on circular solutions and recycling

Upcycled oil

Sustainability is at the core of Nordic Oily Waste. Our methods and licenses allow us to recover oil for new purposes. During treatment, water and contaminants are separated from the oil. The oil is then upcycled into “cleaned fuel oil,” making it a sustainable alternative to new raw materials.

I behandlingsprocessen adskiller vi vand og affaldsstoffer fra olien. Olien kan herefter upcycles til “renset fuel oil”, således den kan genbruges og dermed være et bæredygtigt alternativ til nye værdifulde råmaterialer. Du kan læse mere om vores fuel oil her.

Energy optimization and circular solutions

All our facilities use BAT technology, and we continuously work to improve and optimize both processes and energy use.

We not only optimize the treatment process itself but also repurpose the energy generated - such as heat. For example, in Aarhus, we collaborate with Kredsløb to convert excess heat into green, CO2-neutral heating for the local community. Kredsløb.
