Abstract

Waste oils are considered toxic and hazardous waste for both the environment and humans. Environmental pollution with waste oils can be reduced if this hazardous waste is recovered by purifying and reusing it in the automotive and industrial fields. This technology of purification of waste oils requires organizational, scientific, and economic efforts for an evolution of this branch. This chapter promotes the exploitation and use of deposits of natural absorbents (bentonites, zeolites) and the use of new energy resources, while saving classical resources.
