Abstract

A method of recycling waste lubricant. The method includes providing a waste lubricant-derived oil fraction, pretreating the waste lubricant-derived oil fraction, and hydrocracking the pretreated waste lubricant-derived oil fraction. The method has economic advantages in that waste lubricant can be recycled into fuel oil and high-grade lube base oil with a relatively high yield compared to a lube base oil manufacturing process utilizing only unconverted oil as a feedstock.
