Even though it may seem like just about everything in the South can be deep-fried, you probably never thought of this one: Southern fried fuel.
The City of Columbia kicked off its "Southern Fried Fuel" environmental initiative Monday, in which used cooking oil will be recycled into biodiesel fuel that will power a city garbage truck.
(The success of the biodiesel fuel industry relies heavily on biodiesel testing <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s32Ke2VzrqU>, not only at the production level but at the consumer level, where degraded fuel may cause engine failures. Of major concern to diesel and biodiesel users is the very real possibility that water has contaminated their fuel. (See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YcczdvPyAk). The potential catastrophic impact of this problem is discussed at length in this video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lh4qhXc_5s&feature=youtube_gdata.
Fleet Fuel's family of inexpensive biodiesel test kits is just a click away on the internet at:
