used oil/waste oil

Look up MEN heater and babbington burner


Mix it with sawdust about 1:1 and its an excellent shop stove starter. I actually built an automatic auger fed rocket stove that runs on sawdust and waste vegetable oil since i had so much slop to dispose of after drawing off everything clean enough for vehicle fuel.

Wvo and sawdust smells like buttery pancakes in the stove.

 

Wish you were closer by I would take all you have.
I go thru about 1400 gallons a year to heat a large commercial shop.

 

Keeps the dust down on gravel roads,,,

 

blame the mother in law.

 

I have a shop downbound in one of the towns here in the County that has a holding tank for all waste products. It does not care what goes down that spout into that tank. If its used in some way on a motor vehicle of some kind, and no good after disposal. Down the spout you pour it. They have a vacumn truck come by about two times a month and empty the tank.

At the processing center tank truck dumps the liquid into a sorting tank. From there it's going to go through processes seperating with proven science this from that out of these. Boom, you have some new recycled fluids that will come in handy to someone.

In Pine Bluff Arkansas at the Cotton Belt Shops (Been in operation one way or another since the 30's and world war two in particular building steam engines of great power and enormous tonnage to deal with the overload in war freighting. Inside that shop sits Cotton Belt number 819 a 4-8-4 Class steam locomotive. There is a oil tender on the end of that. Pour your motor oil into it when the staff gives you the ok after inspecting it.

Ask the staff to tell you some stories of the things that the train crew has managed to do and establish for themselves everlasting glory and songs will be sung. One incident the last engineer with her working hard in Illinois on the Wabash Main. Had the 819 up to 80 mph and then gently urged her beyond towards the magic 100.

No one will ever confirm or deny the story, however it did pass a fast Wabash steam train like it's sitting still.

Anyway you asked about oil. I gave you two fun places to get rid of it.

 

Yep you can burn it as fuel in an old Powerstroke or Cummins engine but not the newer common rail motors.

 

Call your local landfill. They’ll take it, they may or may not charge for disposal tho.

My local landfill charges $1.00 per gallon. The county where my parents live in FL is no charge for waste oil.

 

Just dump it at the truck stop in the road so we can watch prime spin around in circles

 

Just sell it in a truckstop. Find the guy that has the most bagged out POS there. I'm sure his truck would LOVE some fresh(er) oil .


I'm kidding. Don't put used oil in your engine lol.


In highschool I worked at an industrial supply store. We'd sometimes get loggers come in with a couple dozen buckets of used oil on service day. I believe we got paid for used oil so we didn't care how much people brought down.
