Abstract A simplified technique for reprocessing spent automotive crankcase oils into useful petroleum products other than lube oils, without producing residues which cause water pollution was demonstrated. All of the petroleum products from vacuum distillation of the waste oils were sold as low sulfur heating fuel as potential diesel fuels. Only the water in the fuel was not recovered. Varying composition of the waste oils accounted for much of the operation difficulty encountered. Metal based additives caused numerous clogging problems. Feed variability plus increasingly stringent effluent laws resulted in obsolescence of the plant before test runs were finished. Use of the waste oils in the plant was extremely damaging to the equipment, resulting in much greater yearly depreciation than was anticipated.
