Re: [biofuel] WVO Availability
you'd be surprised at how much vegetable oil comes out of a small town of loggers, miners, and other working folk (i've checked this out pretty thoroughly hunting grease on a few long road trips). It seems like it wouldn't be much but that is wrong- fast food restaurants really put out huge amounts of the stuff (of varying quality of course, you might not have the choice we have in cities, but... ) Mark At 04:27 PM 1/14/2003 -0800, you wrote: What ideas has anyone come up with to get a decent supply of WVO?

Vegetable shortening as fuel (was Re: [biofuel] WVO Availability
Robin, Looks like Mark can make biodiesel with it, so you've gotten that answer. In case you're considering using it for a straight vegetable oil conversion, I would say sure to that as well, provided you provide your vehicle with some good dependable in-tank heating. I'd recommend the Webb HotSTK http://www.webb-sales.com/I80.htm (with thanks to motie, who turned us onto this most excellent fuel tank heating device.)

Re: [biofuel] WVO Availability
Robin, The average person will consume 2 gallons of veg oil per year - 60,000 gallons in your town. Add a few surrounding towns and you should reach 100,000 gallons. The ease of getting supplies will vary by what your competitor is charging to pick it up. In Wisconsin they are charging $55 per removal. Needless to say, we can get all we want for free!
