French fries oil: it's going to evolve

[C moa]

Courage comrades, it will evolve:

Frying oil instead of diesel?

"This is our planet" is now a daily event. Every weekday morning at 6:52 a.m., Virginie Garin discusses major environmental issues, a subject now placed at the heart of French concerns. In Nancy, the company "Lorrainergie" will collect used oil from restaurants in the region to make fuel. The collection will start this week.

Okay, the question is when but it progresses !!!

Wow what an innovation ... it's been years that it exists elsewhere. Cocoricco, let's be proud to be French!

On the other hand, it is the oily Lorrainers who will pull the face !!

The fuel he is talking about is undoubtedly petrochemical DIESTER ...

ps: i had a lot to think about similar project in 2002-2003... which has more or less worked in Belgium ... but there are far too many economic pressures in this area to do a sustainable activity without having to suck the tankers!

Even when it's DIY: there will quickly be a supply problem: personally, I eat french fries once a fortnight ( yes, yes, I am Belgian), which corresponds to an annual production of 5 or 6 liters.
Very little to cover 30.000 km per year

Hello,
Not so much, imagine what the restaurants and chip shops consume!
It ends up making volume.

Let's not exaggerate anything, it's marginal: at most a liter per inhabitant and per month: not even enough to ride a scooter

[jonule]

it is propaganda to discourage the little clever budding ...

normally everything should be recovered in terms of oil, but this is not even the case, they do not succeed! most are released into the wild ...
in a poorly managed recycling center, it is mixed with the draining oil (not even serious).

there is palm oil which nobody wants "for now", it is found in particular in road restaurants for example ... it must be heated to use it, store it and use it in a vehicle, it's not easy but quite possible to recycle this "waste" ;-)

well, I'm going to go build my little chip shop me !!!

"the fries, good for health, gives tone, tans the skin, gives the fries!"

During my 2002-2003 project I noticed one thing: what 99% of people forget is thatoil not recovered and dumped in the sewer is a disaster and has a very significant cost for society!

Indeed: it will eventually plug the pipes.

This is not taken into account in the cost ... but it is not negligible.

Do you know how much it costs to open a pipe entered under a roadway?

What I mean by that: there should be a law that requires all municipalities to recover these oils via a municipal service and not a company that wants to make money! In fact exactly as for other waste ...

But that would be the death of oily French fries ...

Yes Bibi for Belgium (we all saw the Valorfrit pub I think, very well done elsewhere) ... but I was speaking for France ...

And even in Belgium it is far from being respected ... as confirmed by your links.

Personally, I collect the used oil in a polyethylene bottle (lemonade or mineral water bottle) and I put this tightly closed bottle in the trash bag: this saves energy from the incinerator.
I would point out that we have to make sure that the garbage bags are incinerated, but this is the case in Charleroi.
Normally, I could go to the container park, but when I go there, I always forget my oil.
