Vortex Recycling
Vortex Recycling collects used oil filters from recycling centers (many states ban landfill-bound disposal or have strict rules in place). Vortex then processes the materials in its custom-designed facility, where scrap metal and used motor oil are recovered, which can then be reprocessed into usable industrial, heating, or fuel oil, and the metal re-sold.
