What should happen to that used oil filter when it comes off your car.
Пікірлер
I have worked as a diesel mechanic for many years and seen a lot of people who dont give a crap about environmental regulations. I worked the lube bay at a busy TA truck stop and was instructed to throw dripping oil filters in the trash (some hold 2-3 quarts of fluid) and not worry about crushing them. I learned in college that a business will not spend money to do the right thing, only what is cheapest in their interest... Great video to reclaim waste oil and steel products (prevent pollution)

I've done a lot of oil change for customers, and we always keep the oil used for the refineries to recycle it. But we are left with no right destination for the oil filters and the new oil containers that are empty and unused because they are contaminated waste. Fortunately we already see that it is possible to give destiny to one of these pieces that become useless after its time of life. Excellent video.

It is relatively easy to "open" the oil filter and remove the filter element, then the metal parts can be recycled. This has the added advantage of being able to inspect the filter element for metal particles or coolant. To open an oil filter, cut the can just below the plate that screws the filter on. You can use a pair of tin snips, a metal cut off wheel, a really big pipe cutter or what ever else you think will work.

It's absolutely not about the money. Recycling is about the stewardship and preservation of our planet to ensure future generations have a clean planet to live on.
@savageboner7 жыл бұрын
It's not about making money... It's about keeping our planet cleaner. Sure there's money made, it is oil after all. Used oil can be used for many things. Then you take that raw metal and send it to metal companies to be reused instead of rotting in the ground. For instance an oil filter company could be buying this from him and re-using it to make new filters. But none the less he's making money, it's not like you charge a trash company or the landfill to take your trash lol, he's doing oil change companies a favor by taking these (usually they pay someone to safely dispose of the oil/filters)

Great job, but one question, would it make more sense to just cut the filter open and remove the filer element and waste oil, so you don't have to use heat to remove it? Just pull the paper out and squeeze the oil out?
@TomsChevelle8 жыл бұрын
Yes. I have argued that point to death. If they cut the filter and remove the paper, they can use hot water & steam to remove the remaining oil. This process instead burns the paper filter and any remaining oil.
@jimrojas627 жыл бұрын
it would not be cost effective, and it would be very labour-intensive to open each filter and remove the contents, plus, you'd still have the sludge and paper to dispose of in a safe manner....the baking process used in the video cooks away the combustible components and creates no. 1 steel, which is ready to transport and sell.

They wouldn't be doing it if there wasnt a profit in it.
As a former engine rebuilder I had no idea . SO nice to see this !!
Thank you guys for the hard work so our children can have a better future 👍🏼
Great business. Love the closed loop nature of the heating and secondary heating using the reclaimed oil.
Thank You Lucas lane Inc. Great to see companies like yours care.
Kick ass service you provide guys!! Sure hope you are still in business. This needs to be done. Thank you from my great grandchildren.
What type of dipsticks give this a thumbs down. Great to see some folk give a damn about the Environment. Thumbs up from England.
I am a big supporter of both the invironment and the outvironment!
Johnny Pea I GET IT!! lol (Insert picture of fry here)
Mik Seer Haha, dipstick
Stay in England as shole

Why we watch, curiosity #1 and we should all be looking for alternate streams of income, especially green income. Bravo Lucas Lane. I'm looking for the financials....
Thank you for giving us all a greener world. Peace too. VF
Highly informative! I used to work in the automotive industry and have thought about this quite a few times!
Man, what a novel concept. You are a true entrepreneur. We only need like 10,000 more companies like your Lucas Lane to help clean up the 500 million oil filters produced each year.
Really interesting. Nice narration.
I have a small mechanic shop and never toss filters in the trash, but we do cut them open and drain them as needed, then toss them in the scrap bin. This process looks really efficient and I'm sure much better then me just cutting filters open to drain for a couple days.
I have placed this video in my playlist United We Stand KZheadrs thanks for sharing keep up the great work and God bless. Ken
Good informative video! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome! We need this in every state!
Thanks for your work. I have always wondered what happens to all these filters.
@David Lucas hands down is amazing company and group of people who care about the environment that we all enjoy. Thank you guys and keep up the good work.
such a simple process with multiple benefits and a good job creator.
Very impressive, thank you for caring about the environment.🌎🌎🌎
FANTASTIC!! The guys who change my oil use waste oil as fuel to heat their building. BTW they never charge for oil change if you bring oil with you. Kudos to you and Powers Transmission here in Lexington KY !!
Helping the environment and also making business whatta genious, keep up ❤
Hat off to you, great idea and so worth while.
If they take your oil they should take your filter. If they don't, tell them then they don't get your oil.
Mr. David I need that plant in Africa, I am working on the engine oil recycling plant i want to take part in this one. and it will be of good advantage to recycle the oil that is coming form the filter into engine oil again. can i please e-mail me at rabansilva8@gmail.com there is alot i want to ask you.

It's absolutely not about the money. Recycling is about the stewardship and preservation of our planet to ensure future generations have a clean planet to live on.
It's not about making money... It's about keeping our planet cleaner. Sure there's money made, it is oil after all. Used oil can be used for many things. Then you take that raw metal and send it to metal companies to be reused instead of rotting in the ground. For instance an oil filter company could be buying this from him and re-using it to make new filters. But none the less he's making money, it's not like you charge a trash company or the landfill to take your trash lol, he's doing oil change companies a favor by taking these (usually they pay someone to safely dispose of the oil/filters)
Tell that to the one who invest on the plant. Im environment engineer but the focus it's clear. It's a investment
Glad that somebody out there is helping the environment!!!!!!
I live 30 minutes from from these guys. Never heard of them. This is awesome!!
Thank you for the informative and somewhat gratifying video.... Is there a poss. use for the "waste" heat that your stacks emit? Local generation of electricity? Drying parts in another process? Drying a crop.....corn? Making beer? (I don't drink...)
Nice work you guys. good luck.
Cool video. You guys ought to franchise! Add a greenhouse to capture the heat and the carbon and you're as close to closed loop as you can get!
I applaud this company doing humanity a most needed service,hopefully more companies get involved in cleaning up products that pollute our environment.Future generations ought not inherit the contamination of past generations.
Who is watching in 2019 i am and thanks for recycling oil filters and making a greener world
Nah bro. I'm here in 2023

Cool process David
Thanks for sharing this video I thought it was cool and now I know how you recycle oil filters thanks again keep up the good work
Thank you David to you and your family for the good work you do.
This is awesome, thanks guys.
I thought the filter in the foreground was an energy drink at first and I was wondering why Caterpillar makes an energy drink and then I read the title
You should make a longer video of the whole process. I love watching stuff like this.
Idk why listening to stuff like this in the background helps me focus/concentrate or relax???? The narrator has such a calming voice
Thanks for the video. I never thought these were recycled like this
your welcome
+David Lucas hi
Sir can you send me plant details on my mail Id Sajan.lunee@gmail.com
Can you ask advance auto parts to be part of this?
Stopped here ti say thanks and kudos to you. I hope and wish you business is still doing great and continue to do so
Very impressive approach and technology. Wish your business well.
This is pretty sweet. Nicely done. Nice to see that you reuse some of the oil.
Why am I watching this at 2AM?
Rudpavv Rudpavv I'am at 4 am😂
How the fuck should anyone know???
You're calling someone a loser in a comment that is how old? Who's the real loser here?
Try less beer.
Rudpavv Rudpavv ...I'm watching this bc there's never anything good to watch on tv! Hi from Texas good sir
Nice simple and concise video and easily explained. Well done!
Keep it up! I'm always disappointed when someone recommends I just put the filter in the garbage in a sealed plastic bag.
It's very interesting.
Wow this is really great! When I do an oil change, I take both the used motor oil and filter to a local Walmart where the recycle them. Do you know which company recycle those used oil filters collected by Walmart? I hope they're not ending up in a landfill in China or India.
What a great easy to follow video and thank you for what your company does
Looks like a very professional and well thought out operation!
You should sell the oil filter cubes on E-bay... I would like to buy one for my garage....looks neat...
There's always a price. 💪
Thank you very much for the best efforts you do to keep the world with cleaner air. Would it be possible to absorb the hot air that comes through the chute(s) and pass it through piles of carbonic (dry) ice?
That's absolutely fantastic I'm curious to how you got started into this it's interesting to me because of the end result I hate waste ! Thank you for posting the video and taking the time to do it ! 06/18/19 Spokane WA !
Awesome! Thanks Lucas for recycling my oil filters.
Great job, but one question, would it make more sense to just cut the filter open and remove the filer element and waste oil, so you don't have to use heat to remove it? Just pull the paper out and squeeze the oil out?
Yes. I have argued that point to death. If they cut the filter and remove the paper, they can use hot water & steam to remove the remaining oil. This process instead burns the paper filter and any remaining oil.
it would not be cost effective, and it would be very labour-intensive to open each filter and remove the contents, plus, you'd still have the sludge and paper to dispose of in a safe manner....the baking process used in the video cooks away the combustible components and creates no. 1 steel, which is ready to transport and sell.
I will buy your business for 25 schmichels
Geographer 4 fun is that golden schmichels or silver schmichels?
Cutting filters open one by one would be quite a time-consuming process, and on the DIY side, all the oil filter opening tools I've seen tend to be prohibitively expensive.
when i saw this in my recommended with 2 mln viws it made me think when totally random videos would go viral for no reason
Dude are you serious for real????
I love this I did not know that Orielys takes oil filters i do Marine repair and sometimes my oil filters add up quick
Good work. That's why I recycle the filters too. They still hold a lot of oil. Some people just don't understand.
Do you know if any chain auto part store take filters? I bring my oil to a huge fuel tank in the back of the store. I am not aware of an oil filter drop off.
David James Eco station
David James every big name auto parts store, every car dealership with a repair shop I've ever seen will take your used oil and filter
Where I used to live in Florida, only one AAP in the county had the ability to take used oil filters and coolant.
Pepboys
why don't you buy a clipboard so your vendor doesn't have to sign on his hand?
Great Video - Fantastic set up here - We actually manufacture the baling machines which compact the filters and remove the oil here in the UK
It feels nice to hear about good news nowadays; in a world of bad news,, Thanks a lot for everything offered.. Saludos from Costa Rica...
"Heat Vapor" yeah.
Yea theres definitely carbon in it. But seriously it's better than the landfill.
i remembered the movie WALL-E when i watched it.
I always wondered and now I know. Thanks for sharing and protecting our resources and environment.
Fantastic, sir, you deserve a medal 👍✅🌟🙌
google Lucas Lane Inc. and it will come up on the map.
OK, but how do you manage a poison pollution associated with heat treating?
Extreme temps.
A worthwhile approach. Keep doing this please.
Awesome!! Thank you for making the world a better place for us all.
some things need to be developed, for example the papaer in the filter and rubeer part in it.
A few scraps of paper is pretty insignificant compared to 70,000 tons of steel. How many pounds of paper do you flush down the toilet every year?
I throw mine in the garbage after I pour my oil in the storm drain.
Good troll, sir
Partikkus LOL! You could always use the waste oil,to kill poison oak along fence lines.
George Boyd correct. I use all my waste oil to kill any weed by the fence of my house. Remember radiator coolant fluids kills unwanted weeds/ grasses
Partikkus youre not funny.
c3h8O hey, that's pretty hot.
IMHO I believe we should be more into recycling than we currently are in the US. great job recycling oil filters and keeping them from getting in the landfills.
This is why I Love Pennsylvania. There are alot of these types of small businesses around the state.
