Benefits of Our Partnership
Cooking oil is a staple in restaurant kitchens. But after chefs fry and sauté foods, the remaining oil is sometimes, without hesitation, dumped down the kitchen drain. Rather than contribute to a range of potential issues, restauranteurs are urged to recycle their used cooking oil and reap its many benefits.
Benefits of UCO Collection
Avoids Clogging Kitchen Pipes and lower repair costs
The last thing a busy restauranteur needs is a clogged plumbing system to disrupt kitchen operations. Pouring used cooking oil down the drain will eventually clog or crack the pipes. The most accessible solution to circumventing blockages in the plumbing system is to schedule regular Used Cooking Oil Pickups with a reputable cooking oil collection company. Utilizing professional services to properly discard used cooking oil will prevent the waste from destroying the kitchen pipes.
Protect Local Sewer Lines
When recycling used cooking oil, the restaurant’s plumbing system is immediately protected. However, the local municipality’s sewer lines are also safeguarded. Used cooking oil poured down sewer pipes makes drainage impossible, resulting in irreversible damage to the sewer and overflows to the streets.
Protecting health
Since UCO is often sold into lower income sectors endangering lives
Create Renewable Energy
Innovation allows used cooking oil to be converted into renewable fuels. As a renewable alternative to petroleum-based diesel fuels, renewable fuels are used in diesel engines to power vehicles and machines and heat buildings.
Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Once cooking oil is recycled, renewable fuels are created. renewable fuels are clean and, therefore, minimize pollution. Carbon dioxide emissions are reduced when utilizing renewable fuels. Using renewable fuels helps to decrease greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles and industries.
Rely on Domestic Oil Resources
When restauranteurs recycle used cooking oil, they help to reduce the nation’s reliance on foreign oil resources.
