What Happens To Waste Engine Oil?


Used engine oil, or 'sump oil' as it is sometimes called, should never be thrown away or dumped. Although it gets dirty, used oil can be cleaned of contaminants so it can be recycled.

Recycled Oil can be used for:

Industrial burner oil, where the used oil is dewatered, filtered and demineralised for use in industrial burners
Hydraulic oil;
Bitumen based products;
An additive in manufactured products; or
Re-refined base oil for use as a lubricant, hydraulic or transformer oil.
Once you have taken your used oil to your local collection facility, used oil collectors take the used oil and undertake some pre-treatment and recycling of the used oil or sell it to a specialised used oil recycler.
