Waste Kerosene

crazydude · 2014-12-18 07:13:27

I have a small amount of waste kerosene to dispose of...(I'd guess about 5o ltrs) Left in open container so contaminated with some water. It was what was left in an old tank so some sediment in it too. Where can I get rid of?

Kilbarry recycling centre will take waste motor oil for free, so they may take it. Awkward to move it though if its in an open container.

Thanks Hifive but they don't take kerosene.

I was advised to leave standing for a week or too (it is in closed drums now) and let the water settle to the bottom. Then siphon out the kerosene and strain it back into my new tank. I'll try that.
