ECOSLOPS overview (http://www.ecoslops.com):

ECOSLOPS has developed a unique technology to transform oil residues from shipping (slops and sludge) into new recycled marine fuels. The Company's ambition is to establish itself as major player in the treatment of marine hydrocarbon waste.

ECOSLOPS' first industrial scale treatment unit, with an annual capacity of more than 25 000 tons of recycled fuel, acquired end of 2014 an operating permit in Sinès, the first industrial Portuguese port located 150 km away South of Lisbon. The production began and during the course of 2015, the unit will increase its capacity.

The ECOSLOPS solution is based on a perfect knowledge of the processes of collection, treatment and recycling of slops and sludges, and a major innovation: the P2R ("Petroleum Residue Recycling") column.

ECOSLOPS offers an economic and ecologic solution to port infrastructure, waste collectors and ship owners through industrial scale treatment unit they develop and operate. The recycling market has grown strongly, with the tightening of international and European regulations, while the sea freight picks up by 3 to 4% long run annual growth.

Several projects to deploy slops treatment units internationally are ongoing, in countries such as Côte d'Ivoire, in Singapore, or Northern Europe. ECOSLOPS was created in 2009 by Michel Pingeot, former CEO of Heurtey Petrochem, and Jean-Claude Company. They both have a long experience in the petroleum industry and refining, holding different position in company such as Total Group and Gemmes Venture.

ECOSLOPS is a public listed company on Alternext in Paris (ISIN: FR0011490648; Mnemonic: ALESA)
