However, currently only 10% of the used oil collected is re-refined back into base oil, with most being partially processed for fuel oil, to be used in furnaces, kilns and burners.
  • How many lubricating oil refineries are there in South Africa?
  • In South Africa there are 2 lubricating oil refineries in Durban, producing Group I base oils. Other lubricating oils are all imported. Each one has an input of around 200 million litres of waste oil per annum, which is equal to virtually half the total lubricating oil requirements of the whole of South Africa.
  • What is refinex used for?
  • The end products are used in assorted furnace and burner fuel applications. Refinex sources feedstock ranging from virgin base oils to waste oils. We refine and process various products to produce high-quality burner fuels, solvents and biofuels for customers throughout Southern Africa.
  • Will South Africa re-refining back to base oil?
  • Meanwhile internationally, there is a significant trend towards re- refining back to base oil with the environmental case carrying weight, as South Africa struggles to transition towards a re- refining model.
  • How much used oil does BME use in South Africa?
  • Currently BME consumes more than 20% of the total available used oil in South Africa. Do you have used oil you need to dispose of safely? BME's used oil initiative was awarded 'Responsible Care initiative of the year' (Category A segment), by the Chemical and Allied Industries¡¯ Association (CAIA). Reducing the impact on the environment.
  • How many lubricating oils are there in South Africa?
