This is a photo from inside the tank while filling from the centrifuge. This is used motor oil being processed warm (inside our shop) at 5 gallons per hour, about 1/4 what Mike normally does at the farm. What is interesting about this photo is in addition to the stream of oil coming from the centrifuge you can see the oil mist that comes in also. If our seals weren't good this mist or oil vapor would escape into the air, which we breath. It would also leave a thin oil coating on everything. I've never seen vegetable oil create such a fine mist as this motor oil. |
