Year ago I designed and built an oil reclaim system for an ammonia refrigeration plant. It worked very well and Texaco said the oil met new specs when tested. You need a vessel,(small hot water tank) small oil pump with motor, cheap air compressor, and some spin on oil filters with mounting hardware and a bunch of pipe fittings.

Set the thermostat on the hot water tank to 140-160 so the oil does not overheat and degrade or form carbon. The pump circulates the oil through the tank and filters. This system was used to reclaim about a barrel a week of contaminated oil which would otherwise be lost.
