Bombing out additives

[Shannow]

We all know that we want the additives in suspension etc, but what about in the oil's "second" life as a fuel source ?

Is there any simple way of getting the additives out of the oil, so that it can be burned ash free in furnaces or whatever ?

Why would you want to do that? I prefer getting my zinc supplement by inhalation.

Simple: I take 50 Mg Zinc every day for the last 15 years and I'm running real fine...

We have heaters here that burn used motor oil. They're illigal in a lot of urban areas.

Groucho, thus why I want to know how to get the additives out.

At work, we pay a lot to dispose of used oil...we also pay a lot for furnace oil.

We've tried some used oil products, but have burner tip fouling...I want to reduce the ash content of the used oil. If so, I can run our diesel gens on blends also.
