Italian term or phrase: sistema del rifiuto gasolio
This is from a supply contract for diesel engines. One of the modifications dealt with in the contract regards a "nuovo sistema del rifiuto gasolio".

Does anyone know what this is and/or have a translation for it?

Thanks.

Sì, il gasolio è propriamente il diesel e quindi un "fuel", ma quando parliamo in generale del petrolio e dei suoi surrogati, ho sempre sentito parlare di "oil" (oil industry, waste oil, oil-water separator). Di recente ho lavorato per un ingegnere di un'importante compagnia petrolifera americana, ecco perché sono andata abbastanza sul sicuro :)

Però ora leggevo il contesto che hai inserito, effettivamente è più relativo a una componente del motore. Vediamo cosa riesco a cavarne! :)

Asker: Ma "gasolio" non e' un "olio", bensi' un carburante.
