(54)	Used lubricating oil electric power generating process and facility

(57) The process consists of submitting waste oils, having checked the quality of and accepted the oils, to a heat refining which yields a fuel that is similar to commercial light diesel oil as an end product, which allows diesel motors in an electric power production plant to be supplied directly. The facility has an oil storage yard (9), with a tank (4) at which dirty oil arrives after being accepted, from which it is supplied to dirty oil storage tanks (5) that in turn supply the same to the oil treatment plant (6) from which they move on to storage tanks (8) and finally to an electric power production plant (11) supply system to supply the electric power producing motor generators (13).
