Fuel Recovery & Disposal

Fuel Recovery and Disposal Services to Keep Your Facility Compliant
Fuel disposal and recovery must be done carefully to avoid environmental harm and meet legal requirements. Used, contaminated, or expired fuel should never be poured down drains, into soil, or mixed with regular waste. At RecycleMax, we provide both fuel recovery and safe disposal services so your facility can comply with environmental regulations.


Protect Your Facility with Expert Fuel Handling and Disposal by RecycleMax
Fuel has to be stored in approved, clearly labeled containers that are kept in well-ventilated areas away from heat sources to prevent risks of fire and leaks. Improper fuel disposal, on the other hand, poses significant environmental threats, such as soil and water contamination, and also increases the risks of fires or explosions. Businesses that fail to comply can face severe legal penalties, including fines or even criminal charges.
Here at RecycleMax, our goal is to help facilities avoid these hazards by ensuring all fuel is disposed of in full compliance with hazardous waste regulations. For facilities handling both small and large quantities of fuel, we provide end-to-end support with specialized equipment and expertise, managing safe and efficient disposal or recovery for bulk volumes, including fuel stored in industrial tanks.

RecycleMax helps assess whether fuel can be recovered or must be disposed of.

Blending for Energy Recovery
Some contaminated fuels can be blended with other materials and used as a fuel source in industrial processes, such as in cement kilns or power plants.

Fuel Reclamation
If the fuel is only slightly degraded, it can be reprocessed through fuel reclamation facilities, which restore it to a usable state.

Fuel Filtering
Fuel that is contaminated but still usable can sometimes be filtered and cleaned for reuse. This method is common for larger quantities of diesel and other fuels used in industrial equipment.

When fuel cannot be recovered or reused, it must be disposed of using approved methods.

Chemical Treatment
In some cases, fuel can be neutralized through chemical treatment before disposal, ensuring it no longer poses a hazard to the environment.

Hazardous Waste Disposal
For fuels that are classified as hazardous waste, RecycleMax transports the fuel to licensed hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) for safe destruction or neutralization.
