Some
oil collectors have started to send the oil as Recycled Fuel Oil
(RFO) to Southern Ireland which has with Germany decided to delay
the implementation of the directive.
This has resulted in an inequality of costs and processes for
the waste oil collection service providers with two camps some
which are in strict abeyance of the law and those that are using
the legislative challenge in March and June to continue to sell
the waste oil as fuel oil whether processed or not. Nearly
a year after the Directive has come into force an Oil Recycling
company has decided to seek a Judicial review to allow it to
use Clean fuel Oil (CFO) which could have a large implication
on how your waste oil is disposed of and affected the way the
UK meets its Carbon emission targets as well as impacting on
what costs you as a customer would be charged or possibly even
paid for your waste oil.
Whatever the outcome of the Judicial review waste oil will remain
a headache for all users and handlers of the material as transport,
collection and disposal costs continue to rise.
With the above in mind please remember it is your “duty
of care” to know what is happening to your waste oil?
