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: [1] increased opportunities for consumers to recycle oil lessens the likelihood of used oil being dumped on lands and in ...
Mix the oil with high-carbon materials (such as sawdust, shredded newspaper, or dry leaves), which will help absorb the oil and break it down. Avoid pouring oil directly onto the compost pile.

The U.S. EPA defines the term "used oil" as any petroleum or synthetic oil that has been used, and as a result of such use is contaminated by physical or chemical properties. [2] "Used oil" is a precise regulatory term. "Waste oil" is a more generic term for oil that has been contaminated with substances that may or may not be hazardous. [1]
2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C 5 H 10 O. It is a highly flammable, mobile liquid. It is mainly used as a replacement for Tetrahydrofuran (THF) in specialized applications for its better performance, such as to obtain higher reaction temperatures, or easier separations (as, unlike THF, it is not miscible with water).
Both unsubstituted and substituted tetrahydrothiophenes are reported to occur in nature. For example, tetrahydrothiophene occurs as a volatile from Eruca sativa Mill. . (salad rocket) [5] while monocyclic substituted tetrahydrothiophenes have been isolated from Allium fistulosum 'Kujou', [6] Allium sativum (garlic), [7] Allium cepa (onion), [8] Allium schoenoprasum (chives), [9] and Salacia ...
Tetrahydrofuran (THF), or oxolane, is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 4 O. The compound is classified as heterocyclic compound, specifically a cyclic ether. It is a colorless, water-miscible organic liquid with low viscosity. It is mainly used as a precursor to polymers. [8] Being polar and having a wide liquid range, THF is a ...
