ERGENE Waste Recycling Plant Approximately 10.000 m3 of ship-sourced petroleum-derived waste oil is recycled annually. Petroleum derived wastes are recovered as raw materials in many industrial fields, especially in the petrochemical, automotive and construction sectors. Approximately 40 million TRY has been contributed to the national economy. 1 liter of waste oil renders 1 million liters of water unusable and 5 million liters of water undrinkable. İSTANBUL ENERGY prevents 10 million m³ of water from becoming unusable and 50 million m³ of water undrinkable in the Bosphorus, thanks to the recovery of petroleum-derived wastes originating from ships. Thus, it is prevented that water as much as Sapanca Lake becomes undrinkable every 10 (20) years. Read More
