Recycling of used car oil by acid treatment method

الملخص EN

In the present research, the characteristics of virgin car oil, oils waste of cars, local refined oil and recovery oil in the laboratory were evaluated and compered between them experimentally.

In this work, Sulfuric acid was used to regenerate waste car oil.

Various properties of different tests oils such as flash point, pour point , water content, specific gravity, ash content, viscosity and iron content were analyzed.

The result acquired of tests oils in the present research are in good improvement at different degrees compared with virgin oil vehicle properties.

Spectra of UV-Vis.

of virgin oil is similar to all other spectra of oils waste cars, local refined oil and recovery oil in the laboratory.

The results were applied practically and commercially by the United Company for Recycling Oils.

The economic cost indicates that recycled oil is equal to 0.5 cents U.S dollar, while average prices for a liter of produced virgin oils by oil refining is equal to three US dollars.
