Used Oils
Used oil is not considered a hazardous waste unless
it has been contaminated with any other hazardous
wastes or if the oil contains over 50 ppm of PCBs
(Polychlorinated Biphenyls). Otherwise, most used
oils can be recycled for reuse. The Environmental
Management Division sends used oil collected
on campus to a facility approved to recycle or dispose
of the oil. Generators of used oil should minimize
the amount of water in the oil and be able to certify
that no other hazardous chemicals are present in
the oil. |
