Around 70,000 tonnes of oil sludge has been treated successfully at the IOC refineries since 1995 when the technology was first introduced.
It is therefore, of considerable satisfaction and significance that TERI has joined hands with ONGC in forming OTBL joint venture and is signing a MoU with Oil India for tackling problems of oil spills and oil sludge in an environment friendly way.
Some of the oil sludge is being carried by waves and wind to the shore, coating roots, trunks and leaves of mangroves and bushes in swamplands, harming seagrass beds and corals unique to the island and trapping slow-moving marine creatures like crabs and prawns.
