True Waste Oil Recycling
Waste oil should not be used as a fuel oil, as incineration creates severe atmospheric pollution with traces of hazardous materials like lead, cadmium, nickel, chromium, zinc and other chemical compositions being released into the atmosphere.
Unfortunately in RSA, legislation has not yet been implemented to prevent burning which releases harmful emissions such as lead, cadmium, nickel, chromium, zinc and other chemical constituents into the atmosphere.
We supply the longest operating lubricating oil recycling (re-refining) plant in South Africa. This plant actually recycles waste lubricating oil back to its original condition meeting all international lubricant standards. The plant is continuously being modernised and upgraded to meet legislative requirements.
