9 : If there was one critical message , you ’ d like a reader to take from this piece , what would it be ? In contrast to typical hydrocarbon downstream businesses that primarily produce fuels for consumption , our focus lies in providing finished lubricant producers with a sustainable avenue to markedly reduce their carbon footprint while simultaneously improving product quality . Our solutions are designed to be environmentally friendly and economically viable , operating independently of governmental subsidies .
10 : Are there any other areas that you consider important for the sector ? Governments can play a crucial role by implementing regulations that prohibit the burning of used motor oil ( UMO ), mandating the utilization of cleaner fuel alternatives . This approach preserves UMO as a vital component in a near-perfect recycling system . Conversely , the adoption of bioderived lubricants , though motivated by noble intentions , can significantly impede the recyclability of UMO . Vegetable oils , being triglycerides rather than hydrocarbons , have the propensity to disrupt the recycling process by causing fouling in re-refineries above a critical concentration . ■
