Collection and Management Process
Collection Process
-
01.
Oleotorres provides the establishment with a bin for depositing used cooking oil.
-
02.
When the bin is full, the Oleotorres collection technicians, with national coverage, proceed to pick up and replace the sanitised bins.
-
03.
The full containers are transported to the Treatment Unit.
- Do not overfill the oil bin
- Handle the oil bin carefully so as not to pollute the surrounding area
- Do not pour hot oil straight into the oil bin
- Use the oil bins exclusively for used cooking oil
- Never pour mineral (motor) oil into the oil bin.
Waste Management
-
01.
After sorting, the waste is carefully poured into an appropriate tank, passing through a mesh where pre-filtration is carried out.
-
02.
After pre-filtration, the waste is pumped to a decanter, where physical pre-decantation treatment is carried out. The waste is freed from water and solid residues.
-
03.
The decanted waste passes through a centrifugation equipment, where finally the clean waste is obtained.
-
04.
The clean oil is stored in tanks ready to be shipped or undergo a physical-chemical refining process.
