I have a question that nobody has been able to give me a definitive answer. Can a person (trucker or farmer) mix their used oil in with diesel fuel and burn the mixture in diesel engines? I would like to know where the law is written forbidding this action if it is illegal. I want to believe it is illegal but I cannot find it in the written law. I have found where it is illegal to burn used oil in an open flame but not in a combustion engine. California Health and Safety Code Section 25250 "Management of Used Oil" Title 22 of California Code of Regulations Sections 66266.30-35 "Hazardous Wastes and Certain Used Oils Regulated as Hazardous Waste Fuels" Title 22 of California Code of Regulations Section 66266.50 "Requirements for Used Oil and Fuel Derived from Used Oil, that are Burned for Energy Recovery" Contact your regional office of the Cal-EPA Department of Toxic Substances Control for information regarding the regulations. --
