Abstract :

Used lubricating oils, after being drained, end up being released into the environment. They have an impact on both humans and the environment if they are not properly disposed of and managed. Indeed, environmental pollution is one of the problems facing humanity today. There are several factors that exacerbate environmental pollution, including the uncontrolled disposal of used motor oils. The need for an environment free from all toxic threats is constantly growing in society. The present work aims to regenerate used lubricating oils from activated clay filter discs. The results show that certain parameters such as density, kinematic viscosity, viscosity index, flash point, and pour point underwent changes, suggesting partial regeneration of the used oil. However, the color of the treated oil remained unchanged.
