Abstract

The used oil generated in Canada each year is the largest single source of liquid organic hazardous wastes in the country. To reduce these volumes, Environment Canada encourages re—use and recycling of used oils as a first principle, and where necessary, proper treatment and disposal. Wherever practicable, used oils should be recovered as lubricants or for use as supplementary fuels under controlled combustion conditions. \ To facilitate this process, the subject of used oil management in Canada was researched and this report on existing practices and alternatives was drafted to serve as a background document for developing programs and controls within various Canadian jurisdictions.
