Oil Conservation Tip: Run Vehicles or Plant Security Robots on Cafeteria Cooking Oil

Author : Lance Winslow
Perhaps you've heard the stories of people motoring around the country on cooking oil waste? This is not an urban myth. During the 1960's, more than a few people pulled up behind a fast food restaurant and gleefully loaded up their tanks.Cooking oil waste serves as a fine substitute for diesel motor oil. Sure, it smells a little and smokes a little, but what the heck! Free fuel is a good deal even if you smell a bit like a giant french fry traveling around. With today's ever-rising gas and oil prices, recycled vegetable oil may be just the thing to save diesel vehicle owners significant dollars while doing the economy and natural oil reserves a favor.Filtration: A Necessary Step in Utilizing Recycled Cooking OilAs a workaround to the by-product buildup, fuel operators often doubled or tripled up on various types of filters to clean the debris out of the cooking oil fuel before it entered the vehicle's engine. Extra filtration always comes in handy, particularly if rough running motors, gummed up fuel lines and excessive smoke is a concern for you. With today's ever-rising gas and oil prices, why not put a practical solution like reused, filtered oil to work motorizing our cars, trucks, security robots and other diesel-powered machinery?Consider the below oil filtration system model for use in your next environmentally-friendly oil conseration effort.The Oil Filtration ModelIdeal use in: - institutional cafeterias
- military mess halls
- industrial complex kitchensPotential alternate source of fuel for:- facility maintenance vehicles
- manufacturing vehicles
- Unmanned Ground Vehicles, i.e. at colleges, hospitals, power plants, refineriesProcess:Step 1: Oil is extracted from kitchen facility by way of human labor or via a forced air hose system
Step 2: Oil is collected in holding tank
Step 3: Oil passes through a series of filtering/drainage tanks
Step 4: Oil flows into a "gasoline-filtering type" tank prior to being pumped into utility vehicles where final filtering takes placeSpecifications:- Dual tank system
- Triple-trap filtration capabilitiesOverview: The best filtration system would ideally be larger than that of the typical dumpster waste collection box that we currently see behind restaurants. A triple trap system, it should feature double tanks and most likely resemble a Storm Water clarifier. One tank would serve as the waste receptacle. Employees or robots can dump the waste directly into this holding tank. Another option: implement a hose system that allows oil waste to flow directly from kitchen to receptacle.Once the oil waste has been collected, a set of tanks pull from below, allowing the floating waste on top to be caught. Then another tank suctions the oil from the center, allowing the heavier debris to settle to the bottom. The fuel then flows into the final filtering tank that's a smaller model of a gasoline filling station system. The recycled oil is now ready to be manually pumped into a vehicle, whether it's a pick-up, diesel powered John Deere run-around or a high tech sensor guided unmanned security vehicle.Final filtration takes place in the vehicle itself, using its existing fuel filtration system. An add-on kit upgrade is also something to consider.This article professionally edited by WordFeeder Copywriting and Content Services, http://wordfeeder.comLance Winslow - Online Think Tank forum board.
