From the value chain to environmental management of used lube oil: A baseline study in Bangladesh
The performance, service life, and energy-economic efficiency of an engine depend on the quality of lubricants. In Bangladesh, yearly lube oil consumption increases by 12% against a 3.42% global increasing rate. American Petroleum Institute (API) has introduced upgraded standards of lube oils with r...
