Wednesday There Mack gold in them sewers It is not exactly bubbling crude but it is close It is sewage sludge something that traditionally has been thought of as only an awkward aste to be disposed of A German discovery however has shown that sewage sludge can be converted to oil The pro cedure is being refined now at the Canada Centre for Inland Waters in Burlington Trevor Bndle residue management specialist at the centre said all things that have made sludge a heavy metals now make it a goodie Tests p for by Canada department of energy mines and resources indicate that CCIWs oil may be the highest quality synthetic yet pro duced That department calls it a very valuable pro duct he said adding we arc more and more en thused about the product every day A city the size of Burlington produced enough sludge to manufacture 500 to TOO gallons of fuel a day This could be sufficient to power alt the city and maybe en the Regions vehicles he said Although a pilot sue reactor could be built a short time COW is looking at a five year plan to prove the technology before going to a commer cial size reactor Until March of IBM laboratory work will be earned out to the process and determine all the advantages and disadvantages said Mr Bridle A demonstration facility will be built in 19H It will have a capacity of about tonnes of sludge per day about the sue needed to meet Burlington s needs However no decision on where to locate It has been made It will run for two years to iron out the dif before commercial exploitation flredoo want to take a chance on speeding up the schedule and blow the opportunity he said because technology that falls rarely makes a comeback so it is important that it wort the first time he added The oil produced at COW will not be an ideal fuel in the unrefined state but it will run a engine Further refining would be required to make it suitable for internal combustion engines One of the more likely uses would be to blend it with other synthetic oils or to supplement a pro duct like Athabasca crude be said Although producing a high quality oil It Is not believed that sludge could make up even one per cent of Canadian oil needs but all contributions help he said Get a great STYLE AND A FREE REDKEN RECONDITIONING TREATMENT TO KEEP IT LOOKING THAT WAY A a saving to eel kilo us In now our win a cm tint makes the most of your looks
