Whether the transformer oil can be reused after treatment is a topic worth discussing. Transformer oil plays an important role in the transformer cooling, insulation and arc extinguishing, so its quality is crucial to ensure the normal operation of the transformer.

First, we need to understand the main components of transformer oil and the contaminants it may be subjected to during use. In general, transformer oil consists of mineral oil or synthetic liquid, and often contains additives to improve its performance. However, in the process of long-term use, due to the aging of electrical equipment, environmental pollution and other reasons, transformer oil is easily polluted by impurities and moisture.

In order to ensure the normal operation of the transformer and extend its life, regular transformer oil treatment is essential. By using various methods (such as filtering, dehydration, degassing, etc.), impurities and moisture can be effectively removed and their performance can be restored or improved.

However, it is still controversial whether the treated transformer oil can be reused in practical applications. On the one hand, the transformer oil after proper treatment can reach a certain standard and has the potential to be put into use again. Doing so not only saves resources but also helps to protect the environment.

On the other hand, with the passage of time and repeated recycling, even after treatment, it is not possible to completely eliminate all pollutants and aging products. These residues can affect compatibility between the old and new batches and ultimately lead to an increased risk of equipment failure.

Therefore, a number of factors need to be considered when determining whether the treated transformer oil can be reused, including but not limited to the quality in its original state, historical record, target application area, and relevant regulations and standards.

To sum up, you can't simply answer "yes" or "no" without specifically stating it. Assessing the suitability of each batch of treated transformer oil for reuse is a necessary and challenging task.
