Bleaching Earth is a significant by-product in the global refining industry. During the refining process, bleaching earth is added to remove impurities and pigments from the oil. Consequently, spent bleaching earth, containing approximately 30% oil, is generated as waste.

At LIPSA, we’ve pioneered a revolutionary technology to extract oil from spent bleaching earth. This innovation not only reduces waste from our refining processes but also lowers our carbon footprint by repurposing what was once considered waste into a valuable new product to produce renewable fuels.
