Intro to Waste Vegetable Oil
(WVO)
How does it work?
According to legend, Rudolf Diesel (inventor of the
diesel engine), debuted an engine at the World’s Fair in Paris that
ran on peanut oil. In the last several years, thousands of vehicles
all over the world have been converted to run on vegetable
oil. But, this is not the answer. Making WVO into
BioDiesel provides the BEST solution with out modifications to your
vehicle.
Does the vehicle have to be a diesel?
Yes, only diesel vehicles can be converted to run on
WVO or SVO.
What is BioDiesel?
Biodiesel is created with a chemical reaction that
uses 80% vegetable oil and 20% methanol. The product can be blended
with diesel and poured directly into the tank of any diesel
vehicle. Blended biodiesel will be denoted by it's percentage
of biodiesel in the blend. B20 is a blend of 20% biodiesel and 80%
petroleum diesel. 100% biodiesel usually costs much more than
petroleum diesel, but because Texas Center for Alternative Fuels is
a Non-Profit Orginization, we can offer our processed BioDiesel
at Diesel Prices or Below.
