CHEM-ECOL can reclaim almost any industrial “waste oil” and bring it back to like-new condition. If it can be collected without coming into contact with non-compatible oils, we can purify it for re-use. Oil reclaiming at its best.

• CHEM-ECOL is licensed for “closed-loop” oil purification

• We have no competitors in Canada, and only handful of competitors in the U.S.; none can offer oil purification service as fast or efficient as ours

• More than 99 per cent of oil product purified through our unique process is returned to our clients; less than 1% of oil is lost during water and waste removal

Oils we purify include:

• Hydraulic oils
• Gear oils
• Quench oils
• Heat-treating oils
• Heat-transfer oils
• Way lubricants
• Stamping oils
• Drawing oils
• Process oils
• Cutting oils (straight oil, not water soluble)
• Phosphate ester fire resistant fluids
• Polyol ester fire resistant fluids
• Polyglycol fire resistant fluids
• Water-glycol fire resistant fluids

What oils cannot be purified?

Engine oils, crankcase oils and other automotive products cannot be reclaimed. A “re-refining” process is best suited to treating these products. See our “Technical Information” page for a description.

At present, we do not reclaim soluble oils or cutting and grinding solutions — but we are currently investigating potential methods for doing this.
