Abstract:The aim of the study was to establish and compare the model of the biodegradability and ecotoxicological properties of oil samples in aqueous environment.The unused new mineral oil Turbinol and used (after 1 year of usage) recovered oil Turbinol purified by the electrostatical method were the tested samples. For the determination of the ecotoxicological properties, the test organisms used were seeds of Sinapis alba L. and the small aquatic crustaceans Daphnia magna. Preliminary tests were positive and determin… Show more
“…The current state of scientific research and technology enables the reutilization of used oils after their regeneration. This practice not only aligns with environmental protection (Hybská et al 2017) but also supports the conservation of the raw materials utilized in production and proves economically advantageous in terms of cost savings.…”

“…Electrostatic cleaning equipment is widely applicable in many sectors, including manufacturing, mining, industry and for various types of oils (petroleum and white oils, biodegradable oils, polyalphaolefins (PAO), diesterbased oils) and polyesters, as well as for glycol oils and liquids based on esters of phosphoric acid (www.hirecofluid.sk 2020; Internal company document KLEENTEK s.r.o. 2022; Hybská et al 2017).…”
The article deals with the possibilities of regenerating operating fluids, assessing the composition of new, used, and regenerated oils by evaluating their toxicity and proposing the environmentally friendly regeneration method. The focus lies on two methods of regeneration of waste operating fluids: distillation and electrostatic cleaning. Oil samples, regenerated through these methods, were analyzed using gas chromatography with mass detection. The variance in composition among new, used, and regenerated oils depends on the method of regeneration. Properties of hydrocarbons exhibiting ecotoxic, mutagenic, teratogenic, carcinogenic, and other effects were identified using safety data sheets and databases like Pubchem, ChemicalBook. Analyzing HLP 46 oil (samples of new, unused, used and regenerated oil) revealed that the most toxic hydrocarbons (acetane, heptacosane, nonacosane) were absent after regeneration through electrostatic cleaning. Comparing the composition of operating fluids before and after regeneration, it was established that the most environmentally favorable regeneration method is electrostatic cleaning, which maintains the original properties of the operating fluids intended for use. Operating fluids regenerated via electrostatic cleaning contain fewer toxic hydrocarbons, making them more favorable concerning human health and the environment.

Brass mechanical properties are not ideal, particularly when the brass is exposed to the effects of mechanical wear. Final finishing of functional surface of machine component is substantial for the particular choice of brass. The aim of the research was to approve or disapprove the hypothesis if abrasive-free ultrasonic finishing (bufo) of brass has higher wear resistance of surface compared to the classical machining. The results of the experiment showed that abrasive-free ultrasonic finishing (bufo) has a major impact on the size of the elliptical wear area. Surface finishing by classic machining formed on average a 41% larger elliptical wear area compared to surface with abrasive-free ultrasonic finishing. The hypothesis of experiment were verified and it is possible to consider that abrasive-free ultrasonic finishing (bufo) has considerable influence on wear resistance of the surface of machine parts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
