All industrial processes\nthat require small or large machinery to function include in their\nprocesses the use of oils and lubricants. After use, these\nend up becoming one of the most polluting waste that exists,\nsince exposure to high temperatures and pressure inside engines and\nmachines eventually give rise to toxic substances and heavy metals which, otherwise,\ntreated properly, they pollute the environment in large quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The factors that make this\nresidue in a highly polluting substance are its low biodegradability;\ncapacity for accumulation and infiltration in living beings, land and water; the\nemission of toxic gases if burned, and the persistence over time of its\nharmful components. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Knowing this, it is important that companies become aware and responsibly take charge of the treatment of these used oils and lubricants, in order to contribute to the care of the environment and the goals established by the draft of the Rep. Law that stipulates collection and recovery goals for lubricating oils for the next few years.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n To meet this goal,\nin the industry there are companies such as Hidronor dedicated to the correct\ntreatment and management of hazardous and non-hazardous industrial waste, and\nAs part of its services, it offers the industry the option to revalue,\nreuse and recycle waste such as residual oils, solvents, paints,\nbatteries, various types of plastics, scrap metal, household appliances, among\nothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Source: https:\/\/n9.cl\/wmlfn<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Draft Law: https:\/\/n9.cl\/5xdcw<\/a><\/p>\n
