Abstract

Waste oils are oils from mineral which were already used (used oil). The results shows in the waste oil 0.15% of H2O and 0.05% in new oil (fuel, gasoil and Fresh lubricating oil).The physicochemical analysis made it possible to indicate the presence of minerals and metals in worn oils in relatively high concentration (30 times higher) compared to pure lubricating oils with sensitively equivalent calorific values. The chemical analysis, by the semi-quantitative colorimetric method using Dräger reactive tubes, made it possible to selectively detect volatile hydrocarbons present in these oils and in contaminated grounds. By comparing the data at 25°C, it appears the concentrations of volatile hydrocarbons (20 ppm) in waste oil are in the same order of magnitude of those normal oils (25 ppm). L2000DX analyzer method by the electrochemical probe confirmed the presence of organ chlorinated compounds like PCBs. The organochlorined fluctuate noticeably (10 -287 ppm) and are highly superior to new oils. Hydrocarbons were detected in the soil sample between 0.1 to 100 ppm.
