I should have specified: my municipality lets us throw any cooking oil out into our compost, and we have special containers in our compost bins specifically for cooking oils. So I’m assuming they get rid of it some way that isn’t actually in the compost.

Well yes, I’m not throwing motor oil in my compost am I?

I was referring to seed-based oils.
It should go without saying that motor oil is also inappropriate, yes

Ah I thought you meant for composting at home. My Mum only ever let us put vegetable oil in the compost, and even then only small amounts.
