南非开普敦市一家名为生物绿色(BioGreen)的可再生能源公司成功利用烹调废油制造出了价格相对便宜且污染较小的生物柴油。该公司使用射流反应器技术将来自饭店和零售商店的烹调废油及鸡脂肪等转化成环境友好的生物柴油。这种生物柴油无毒,比普通柴油具有更高的闪点,因此操作起来更安全,而且废气排放也相对减少。根据计算,用该公司生产的400升生物柴油取代等量的普通柴油,可以少排放1吨的二氧化碳。该公司的目标就是利用烹调废油和鸡脂肪等生产出高质量的生物柴油。南非化工巨头萨索尔(SASOL)公司对生物绿色公司生产的柴油进行检测后表示,该公司的生物柴油质量很高,完全符合满足欧盟和美国的标准。该公司的第一家工厂设在开普敦,已经于2009年初早些时候开始运行,日产生物柴油2000升。烹调废油主要来源于开普半岛的150
A renewable energy company called BioGreen in Cape Town, South Africa, successfully used cooking waste oil to make biodiesel, which is cheaper and less polluting. The company uses jet reactor technology to convert cooking oil and chicken fat from restaurants and retail stores into environmentally-friendly biodiesel. This biodiesel is non-toxic and has a higher flash point than regular diesel fuel, making it safer to operate and reducing exhaust emissions. According to the calculation, with the company’s 400 liters of biodiesel to replace the same amount of ordinary diesel, less emissions of 1 ton of carbon dioxide. The company’s goal is to produce high-quality biodiesel from cooking waste oils and chicken fat. SASOL, the South African chemical giant, tested the diesel produced by BioGreen and said it has high quality biodiesel and is fully compliant with the EU and U.S. standards. The company’s first plant, based in Cape Town, has been operational earlier in 2009 and produces 2,000 liters of biodiesel per day. Cooking waste oil comes mainly from the Cape Peninsula 150
