• Used cooking oil processing as alternative fuel oil
• Olive oil production
• Avocado oil production
• Animal fat production from slaughtering
• Offal / tallow recovery from fleshings
• Fishmeal stickwater
• Slop oil processing
• Crude oil storage tank bottom sludge
• Oil lagoon clearing
• Oily sludges from oil fields, oil refineries, petrol stations, metal industry, etc.
• Tar processing on coking plants and in tar chemistry
• Oil recovery from caustic in barrel washing
