Oil Sprayer for UTV for dust control?

[Snobdds]

Sounds like you should start fertilizing your vegetable garden with used motor oil every year.
Spring, summer and fall.
Imagine all of the healthy vegetables for your family to eat!!!

Maybe you missed the part where natural bacteria and enzymes broke the oil down after a number of years.

Nobody advocated for the direct application of oil as fertilizer.

It's narratives with red herrings, like your example, that give environmentalist an ungrounded view of reality.

Yeah. Like dumping used motor oil on the ground does not pollute.
How do we know? The grass turns green.
THERE is a scientific study if I ever heard one.

You seem to have a problem with selective editing as the only way to make your point...

If oil comes from the ground, how is oil going back into the ground polluting?

Ever hear of tar pits? Are those pollution or nature?

Dump 5 gallons of drain oil in your domestic water supply and report back.

no one is saying do that...

But thanks for another red herring...

I'm looking to build a sprayer that would sit in the back of my UTV that would allow me to spray used oil on my roads to help with dust control. I have a 16 gallon spot sprayer with custom boom for weed control but at 2.2 gpm and 70 psi it doesn't seem to have enough power to distribute oil. Thinking maybe something with a larger 12 volt pump or maybe small gas motor. What kind of pressure and nozzles would be reguired? Anyone out there fabricated anything like this? Thanks in advance for any help!

Ampped: in terms of enviro impact or possible epa fines regarding this practice, be patient
at the current rate of epa deregulation, & the global warming/climate change denial by the government, it may not be a problem. heck, with the new confidence of the corporate tax cuts & climate denial, the petroleum industry may even subsidize such practices. this is so reassuring for the future of my kids.
not

All those practices from the 1950's sure created a large and detrimental impact for their kids today...It's obvious their actions really put us at a disadvantage today.

Oh.So you're going to spread brand new oil from the container on the road?
I thought you were talking about USED motor oil along with all of the toxins from the combustion process.
Either way; is the practice legal in Wyoming?

Food suppliers use to put formaldehyde in food too. Good thing we learn from our mistakes. :mur:

Great analogy.
