Automotive Oil Recycling Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Automotive Oil Recycling Market is estimated to reach USD 83.12 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 5.9%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Automotive Oil Recycling Market, including market size and trends, product mix, applications, and supplier analysis. Repurposing spent oils and lubricants from automotive sources into new lubricants or other uses is known as automotive oil recycling. It lessens dependency on crude oil while assisting in the recovery of the base oils and preventing waste. Stricter environmental laws, improved re-refining technology, and increased car sales are the main factors propelling the industry.
- In June 2022, Safety-Kleen launched a new line of base oils, emphasizing that the utilization of re-refined base oil, as opposed to traditional refining methods, results in the prevention of 10 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions.
- September 2022: The Finnish used oil collection company owned by Enevo was purchased by Heritage-Crystal Clean. As a result, its European collection network grew.
- December 2020: Nexus Fuels and FCC Environmental collaborated to provide recycled base oils. The collaboration improved the circular economy credentials of both businesses.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
The automotive oil recycling market is expanding steadily due to government rules governing the disposal of spent oil and growing apprehensions about the future of crude oil sources. Most of the spent vehicle oil produced worldwide is either recovered energy or is reused after re-refining. Stricter laws controlling their disposal and rising environmental consciousness have propelled the demand for recycled used car oils. Moreover, the quality of recycled oil has greatly increased due to ongoing innovation in oil re-refining processes. Modern techniques such as vacuum distillation and hydro-treating have improved the quality of regenerated oil to the point where its performance is now on par with virgin oil. The amount of motor oil consumed increases as the world's car fleet keeps expanding. Recycling businesses have an excellent opportunity to grow their businesses and increase their market share thanks to this trend.
However, there are obstacles in the way of the vehicle oil recycling business, including rivalry, fragmentation of the market, contamination, and quality assurance. Ensuring that the recycled oil fulfils the necessary quality criteria is an ongoing problem. Moreover, inefficient methods of disposing of used oil by numerous private car owners and independent repair shops still impede efficient gathering. One of the main obstacles is the high setup costs associated with advanced recycling systems and oil collecting stations, particularly in developing markets. Tight quality standards and competition from goods obtained from crude oil further compound operating challenges. All things considered, the circular economy and sustainability are becoming increasingly important, and this offers market players a lot of opportunities. Through standardisation and accessibility, cooperation with local communities, industry associations, and governments may help unlock potential. Technological developments to improve fuel quality from used oils also offer ways around limitations.
Market Competitive Landscape
The market for recycled automobile oil is fragmented, and the presence of multiple companies is expected to cause rivalry. To stay ahead of the competition and to guarantee effectiveness, honesty, and safety, major service providers in the industry are always updating their technologies.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Automotive Oil Recycling Market
The COVID-19 epidemic had a major impact on the global market for recycled automotive oil, disrupting supply chains and lowering vehicle usage. Restrictions, lockdowns, and uncertain economic conditions resulted in a decrease in car repair activities, which in turn affected the production of old oil suitable for recycling. However, interest in automobile oil recycling has continued to develop due to the growing emphasis on sustainability and environmental issues. This could lead to a comeback when economies progressively reopen.
