Re: Waste oils

Another good idea would be to figure out some uses for used oil. I've read about used oil being processed and used in the production of certain plastics and other types of lubricants, like the type of grease used for bearings and other moving parts in industrial machinery. If there's a way to do this without creating too much waste or pollution, it's definitely worth looking into reusing engine oil instead of just using fresh crude oil for these purposes if it isn't necessary.
