13 02 07* Rapidly biodegradable motor, transmission and lubricating oils
In today's world, cars are an integral part of our everyday life. Their use is accompanied by a large amount of waste, among which motor, transmission and lubricating oils occupy a special place. These products, while essential to the operation of vehicles, also pose a serious threat to the environment. Let's consider in more detail the problems arising from the use of these oils, their impact on the environment and people, as well as ways to reduce this damage.
Engine, transmission and lubricating oils are used to lubricate moving parts of vehicles, reduce friction and protect against corrosion. Over time, they become contaminated and lose their properties, which makes them hazardous waste. Accumulation and improper handling of these wastes leads to significant pollution of the environment, in particular soil and water resources.
The main problems associated with using these oils include:
- high content of harmful substances;
- long-term decomposition in nature;
- impact on human and animal health.
Degradable oils, on the one hand, are a step forward in reducing environmental impact, but even they need proper management to minimize harm.
A pity for the environment and people
Dangerous waste of motor, transmission and lubricating oils has serious consequences for the environment. Getting into the soil or water, they can cause significant pollution of water resources. Heavy metals and other toxic substances contained in these oils can leach into soil and water systems, causing irreparable damage to ecosystems. Even a small amount of such waste can have a significant impact on the environment due to its high toxicity and persistence.
The main environmental consequences include:
- pollution of water resources;
- deterioration of soil quality;
- impact on vegetation and living organisms.
Water pollution occurs due to the penetration of oils into surface and underground waters. This can lead to a decrease in water quality, which affects the health of aquatic organisms and can cause the death of fish, shellfish and other aquatic life. Water pollution can also affect people if the contaminated water is used for drinking or irrigating crops.
The deterioration of soil quality occurs due to the accumulation of toxic substances that can reduce soil fertility and affect plant growth. This can lead to reduced crop yields and affect ecosystems dependent on vegetation.
The impact on vegetation and living organisms is due to the toxicity of the oils, which can cause mutations and diseases in plants and animals. This can lead to a decrease in biodiversity and disruption of ecological balances in natural ecosystems.
Pity for people
Dangerous waste of motor, transmission and lubricating oils can have serious consequences for human health. Exposure to toxic substances can cause respiratory diseases, allergic reactions and skin diseases. Getting these wastes into drinking water or food can cause chronic diseases and negatively affect general health.
Human health effects may include:
- respiratory tract diseases;
- allergic reactions;
- skin disease;
- diseases of the cardiovascular system;
- oncological diseases.
Toxic substances contained in waste oils can cause irritation of the respiratory tract, which leads to the development of chronic bronchitis, asthma and other respiratory diseases. Allergic reactions can occur due to skin contact with toxic substances contained in olives, which leads to dermatitis and other skin diseases.
Diseases of the cardiovascular system can occur due to the influence of heavy metals and other toxic substances that accumulate in the body. Oncological diseases can be caused by long-term exposure to carcinogenic substances contained in waste olives.
Ways to reduce harm
In order to reduce harm from hazardous waste of motor, transmission and lubricating oils, it is necessary to implement effective methods of environmental management. The main measures include:
- collection and sorting of waste;
- shredding and processing of waste;
- transportation to specialized points (R13);
An important aspect is also informing the population about the dangers of such waste and methods of their safe handling. The implementation of programs for the processing and reuse of oils will also contribute to reducing the negative impact on the environment.
