Deep frying may give your food a crisp edge, but what happens to the oil afterwards? Reusing or improperly disposing of fried oil can harm your health and the environment.

At KachiGhaani.com, we don’t just sell Truly Cold Pressed Oils — we also educate our customers on safe, sustainable practices. Here’s everything you need to know about disposing of used cooking oil the right way.

 

❗ Why You Should Never Reuse Fried Oil

When oil is heated beyond its smoke point—especially refined oils—it undergoes chemical changes:

  • Forms trans fats and free radicals
  • Loses nutritional value
  • Produces toxic aldehydes that damage cells
  • Increases risk of cancer, heart disease, and digestive disorders

Even the cold pressed oils, if reused more than 2-3 times after deep frying, can become oxidised and toxic.

Multiple Times Reheated Oil is no less than poison for your body.”

 

🚫 How Not to Dispose of Used Oil

Improper disposal of used cooking oil causes:

  • Clogged kitchen drains
  • Contaminated water bodies
  • Damage to sewage systems
  • Attraction of pests and foul odor

Throwing it down the drain or mixing it with soil is harmful and illegal in many regions.

 

 

✅ Safe and Eco-Friendly Ways to Dispose Fried Oil

Here’s how you can dispose of used cooking oil responsibly:

  1. Cool It Completely - Allow the oil to cool down after use.
  2. Strain & Store - Pour it into a leak-proof container like a glass jar or steel can with a lid.
  3. Drop It at an Oil Recycling Center - Many cities have designated drop-off points or biofuel centers.
  4. Use it for DIY Soap (if non-toxic) - Very small quantities of oil (non-toxic and non-rancid) can be repurposed into homemade soaps.
  5. Solidify & Throw (Last Resort) - Mix with absorbents like sawdust or flour, solidify it, and wrap it in newspaper before throwing in the trash.
