1. Introduction
Turbine motor oil never wears out and never loses it lubricating properties. It just gets dirty and can be recycled, cleaned, and used again. Recycling used turbine motor oil conserves a natural resource (oil) and is good for the environment too! Turbine motor oil poured onto the ground or into storm drains, or tossed into trash cans can contaminate and pollute the soil, groundwater, streams, and rivers. Recycling our used turbine motor oil reduces this pollution threat. When Columbus Engine Center (CEC) recycles our turbine motor oil we are protecting the environment, conserving a valuable resource, and getting paid for it. That's a winning
combination! It allows processing of hazardous materials in a safe and effective way to recover a quality oil product. This results in a strong economic incentive considering the current price of oil. Test Cell alone can see an immediate savings with 75% reduction in virgin oil purchases. CEC can have a new revenue stream from the sale of recycled oils and scrap filters. The site as a whole will eliminate industrial process waste cost.
1.1 Overview
Currently our used oil/fuel goes to the waste water treatment plant onsite and gets
emptied into a larger tank then the contaminated oil, fuel, hydraulic fluid turns to slug and we have to pay to have it removed from the site. Recycling the turbine motor oil at our Test Cell can
4
eliminate some of this waste reducing the amount of industrial waste created at CEC. The
segregation and recycling of our in house oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids can drastically reduce the amount of slug we currently pay to have hauled off to another location to where it is recycled and used in production of asphalt for roads and highways. Recycling our own oil will not only
eliminate waste but also generate revenue to put back in our budget.
1.2 Purpose
The purpose of this oil recycling project is to eliminate waste and protect our future as a green factory. This will in turn reduce our site Industrial Waste Metrics. With the current
economical challenges companies face we need to find more realistic ways to stay competitive in today's market by making ourselves marketable. Being part of the go green factory ensures us a spot in this competitive market. This Oil Recycling Project will not only present a cost savings incentive and revenue stream but also a clear way to delight the customer.

3.1 Business Need or Opportunity
With the economic downturn of 2008, recycling our own oil for reuse is an economically attractive method in terms of conservation and environment protection. It allows processing of hazardous materials in a safe and effective way to recover a quality oil product.
The Test Facility Oil Recycling Project will:
Reduce the current cost of over $13, 000 annually spent to dispose of slug created by the
combined contaminated oil from the test cell and the shop.
Increase efficiency and productivity at engine test.
Reduce engine turn times through test facility. Reduce annual cost for virgin turbine oils.
It is important to make this transition now to capture our customers’ attention and make
ourselves more marketable as a green factory good neighbor. Delight the customer!
Recycling oil in house gives us the opportunity to control our future and generate an
internal income to offset current budget constraints.
3.2 Financial Benefits of the Project
CEC currently spends $101,420 annually on virgin oil to use for engine testing and troubleshooting procedures. We dispose of 1,980 gallons of turbine motor oil annually from our test facility alone. Recycling our turbine motor oil in house and reusing the oil for engine testing and troubleshooting procedures will reduce the purchase of virgin oil by 95% and generate revenue of $0.90 per gallon from an abundance of recycled turbine oil produced at test cell and/or the shop induction engines. The financial benefits of the project will not only prove to be
9
worth the wealth but the project itself will also eliminate an industrial waste disposable fee we currently pay to have the slug hauled off site.

8. Questions & Concerns
Is there a way to purge the system? The reason I ask is because we currently use two different types of turbine oils in our engines for engine test and we are trying to figure out how to utilize your system without mixing the two oils.
We have found that this unit may only have approximately 1-3 gallons left in the system after you have ran the unit dry and we typically recommend you run 5-10 gallons of the next product through the system in order to flush out any remaining residual oil, if desired. It is always best to service all the systems with similar oil in them first and then move onto the other fluid.
Is there a maximum amount of times you can recycle the oil before it loses its’ lubricating properties or it needs to be discarded?
18
Oil will never lose it's lubricating properties however, factors such as additive levels, oxidation rate, operating temperatures, fluid cleanliness, etc. All play into the determination of how long a fluid can be reclaimed and every type of oil can differ from the next. We have found that through the use of oil analysis, via an independent laboratory, these factors and fluid integrity can be monitored over time in order to determine when a fluid is reaching the end of its life cycle. We have some clients particularly in the power generation industry that are testing their fluids, using fluids with a superior additive package, and keeping their fluids extremely clean. By doing so they are able to extend their fluid life above 10 years compared to the normal 1 year change out schedule.
Does the unit need to be sheltered or is ok to set in the outside elements?
This unit is completely weather proof for all environments. It is constructed with Nema 4 electrical enclosures and designed to handle rain, snow, sleet, sun, etc.
