Recycling of Car Fluids

When a car is unfit for use, it needs to be disposed of. This is done through an auto dismantler. An auto dismantler detaches the usable parts of your car and sells them. Those parts that can’t be reused find applications in other areas. Various fluids in a car are also recycled or disposed of.

 Motor fluids contain toxins that are harmful to humans and wildlife. They are even considered a cause for skin cancer. Hence, they need to be stored safely and securely so that they do not contaminate the soil or water supply. Oils are recycled using different techniques such as catalytic hydrogenation, filtration, ion-exchange, distillation, reverse osmosis, etc. The objective of all these recycling processes is to separate oil from contaminants and other materials such as water and gas oil. The separated oil is used in other oil products.

Some of the fluids that are recycled are coolants, engine oil, washer fluid, brake fluid, transmission oil, fuel oil, etc. Contaminants can be removed from coolants/antifreeze and they can be recycled to produce fresh anti freeze. Constituents of other fluids can be recycled to produce fuels.

The benefit of using recycled fluids is that they are available at economical prices and are beneficial for the environment.

Auto dismantlers who recycle these fluids offer them for sale through Parts Locator a leading magazine for car parts in Australia. Users can buy them by contacting the sellers through the magazine. It is also available as a portal partslocator.com.au for availing these parts online.
