waste oils are treated, giving priority to regeneration or alternatively to other recycling operations delivering an equivalent or better overall environmental outcome than regeneration,

(b)

waste oils of different characteristics are not mixed, and waste oils are not mixed with other kinds of waste or substances, if such mixing impedes their regeneration or other recycling operations delivering an equivalent or better overall environmental outcome than regeneration.
