Waste oil disposal

Incineration of sewage sludge and sludge oil generated during the normal operation of a ship may also take place in the main or auxiliary power plant or boilers, but in those cases, shall not take place inside ports, harbours and estuaries.


If your waste oil is a lubricating oil, eg from a vehicle, make sure you put it into a container that isn't damaged and has a secure lid. Don't dispose of these oils with your normal household waste or recycling. They should be taken to your local household recycling site for safe disposal.
