I doubt that higher petroleum prices would mean, an appreciable increase 
in amount  waste oil is recycled, but higher prices may increase the 
demand for what of what waste oil is collected.  I would love to have a 
transport tanker full of it to sell at the  crude oil reclaiming plant a 
mile South of me. :)  Other than burning it in their diesel engined 
motor vehicles some silly people may would like to recycle it to heat 
buildings.  What is and isn't practice depends on the cost of the 
refined products from petroleum to be stating the obvious.  Anyway the 
tanker full is a daydream, but in some places those using recycled oil 
for heating purposes could be competition for the diesel driver.

Anyway, why would the price/value of waste lube oil be soaring? Do
high oil prices really mean more waste oil is being recycled? More
silly people burning it as fuel in their diesels? Just because the
price of everything else is soaring? And nobody's even blaming
"biofuels"? :-)
