Super Edge recycled base oil is eco-friendly and it generates lower carbon emissions than virgin base oil. The process of production of virgin base oil is energy-intensive and it generates higher emissions of carbon. The rise in the focus on sustainability of the environment across the globe is providing a significant opportunity to the global recycled base oil market.
Automotive oil recycling involves the recycling of used oils and the creation of new products from the recycled oils and includes the recycling of motor oil and hydraulic oil.
Oil recycling also benefits the environment. increased opportunities for consumers to recycle oil lessens the likelihood of used oil being dumped on lands and in waterways. For example, one gallon of motor oil dumped into waterways has the potential to pollute one million gallons of water.
Additionally, the limited availability of feedstock required for the manufacture of virgin oil is driving the need for use of recycled base oil. Producing base oil from crude oil is an energy-intensive process.
A refinery needs to process 100 gallons of crude oil in order to produce one gallon of base oil. On the other hand, only 1.4 gallons of used oil is sufficient to manufacture one gallon of base oil. This makes recycling of used oil a fairly viable process for base oil manufacturing.

How is base oil recycled?
Used oil recycling happens with various methods such as acidic method (sulfuric acid), non-acidic method (alkaline – bentonite or dye), centrifugation, and hydrogenation.
First, recyclers purchase burnt oils are from places such as mechanics and the oil changers. Then, they store them in the factory and begin the refining stages.
There are often some contaminations, e.g. water, diesel, heavy metal shavings in the purchased oil, which are separated at first. Steel producers use these metals as scrap feed.
In simple terms, gear oil recycling includes several steps as below.
Separating water and solid particles by sedimentation
Sulfuric acid reaction to remove grease, gum
Alkaline reaction to neutralize the acid
Rinse with water to remove soap
Simple distillation to remove moisture and volatile oil
decolorizing and absorbing impurities by using clay
Filtering to remove the clay and other solid particles
Hydrogenation to improve color
Blending to specific features
What are recycled oil applications?
Recycled gear oil is applicable for lubricating electric motors, large industrial chainsaws, old motors in mechanical and industrial machines, and simple devices due to its low price. It is practical in many industrial sites, factories, and some car repair shops.
In some countries, recycled gear oil is extremely popular as fuel supplements.
Recycled Used Oil Inspection
Buying recycled used oil, consider crucial criteria of color, density, and flashpoint.
Color: 1.5 – 2.5
Density: 0.870 – 0.890
Flash Point> 180 C

Handling health & Safety :
Lubricants consisting of highly refined mineral oils with specification additives. In normal conditions of use, this lubricant presents no particular toxic hazard. All lubricants, of any kind, should be handled with great care, particularly avoiding can contact with the skin.
Prevent any splashing, and keep away from combustible materials. Store undercover and away from any risk of pollution. Dispose of the used oil correctly; don’t pour down drains, into watercourses, or the soil.
