support will soon become clear. stop next on dw could recycled vegetable oil tank combustible engines. green. i've been presuming, see, next, now the dipping independent, arise to our society is full of contrasts and any policy is a big challenge. many problems can only be solved by working together. yes, i think i pretend isn't misleading. what is home? how do we talk of the major issues about time? let's talk about the there is a significant risk of human extinction from advancing our systems. climate changes

the new frontier, so from our series continues on the w, the from the prior into the fuel tank is used cooking oil, the environmentally friendly solution for old combustion engines. i always say there are more restaurants than fuel stations to land rodolfo rod. it certainly is convinced that this technology and already use it to power his camper. van visa converts cancel if i feel i'm doing the right thing, i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment in his mission with the camper. to educate people about recycling is gold. a pre cross border transport solution. it's almost like we're in a key of frontier 4 by 4 from 2004 with
3:17 pm
a 2.9 liter diesel engine on your it runs flawlessly and seats 6 people big avenue. we've converted it into a camper. what makes this camper special? it runs on recycled cooking oil. this vehicle is called the edge you camper who comes to the edge you can't per, has to fuel used cooking oil and diesel tv and it has 2 fuel lines. but also use this a small onboard computer to switch between the 2 fuels. this computer shows him a lot of data, like the temperature of the oil, which is critical information from them in this system only works is 100 percent vegetable oil can i say? and what's essential is that it's heated 1st now use diesel until the water from the radiator one's up. and once the water is hot, that heats the oil within the oil tank, it was
3:18 pm
a coil system. world water heater system been thrown by heating the vegetable oil in a separate tank. the alternative fuels requires a viscosity and burning properties. similar to diesel vegetable oil is not suitable as a fuel for gasoline engines. folder. diesel engines, on the other hand, can be easily converted since the technology used in the injection systems in the ignition systems. it's very robust, not those of even though it's not an oil vehicles can be converted to run on oil just to see many can be one that there are some specific motors that are believe to not support oil as a fuel some way not, but of my faith and perfect, so you definitely have to do a little research before adapting a vehicle, a bit of an indian. but if there are specific simple motors that also always work in the same way with you and. and then i remember that the onboard computer helps rodolfo switch from diesel to oil very easily. even while driving
3:19 pm
this opens the solenoid valve that allows oil to enter the engine. and when i press it again, it closes the oil solenoid valve and opens the diesel solenoid valve. then the one of the biggest advantages with this system is that you can refuel wherever you want. and it's free of charge. all you need is used cooking oil from the kitchen and filter must give me some more attention. i paid to the oil months. the longer my engine will perform. i have to filter the oil . it's been decanted for a long time. the impurities will have settled at the bottom, whereas they forget to go. but if this is oil i collected a short while ago. you might have particles of french fries or had been yacht as a chicken or anything that has been cooked in it to my, within the system with
3:20 pm
a my oil fuel line. there's another fuel do that. again, filters minor particles in your web. so here at this point, i really try to capture all the bigger part article in the past after the 1st field tracing process, but also looking for the oil straight into his tent, which is located at the back of the camper. its capacity is 100 liters, which lets the vehicle travel around 800 kilometers for the going to be good if i'm going to cover long distances, i can carry several drums and filter the oil anywhere. i use 100 percent oil. when i use oil, i use 100 percent oil. i don't mix it with diesel, and i don't make biodiesel either. and i don't need method all. i don't need to do any chemical process has to have a fuel. i get to a restaurant and i can filter it outside the restaurants and use it to them. use outlook. but he can't just use any oil from the kitchen. if the oil is mixed with
3:21 pm
water, for example, it doesn't work. since the process of separating the oil and water is too complex, plus palm oil is too hard to thought that the if i heated up to a high temperature, it will liquefy a federal reserve, but it needs to be very hot. the music they might say to my system, which stands here to 40 degrees celsius. more in and in my vehicle need an oil that dentist would be bought can't be used to then. so the technology itself is not new in the 2 thousands, some cars and europe ran on vegetable oil at gas stations. you could sometimes even get rate seat oil, pencil rodolfo. it's not a 1st for him to have a vehicle powered by recycled cooking oil between 20082010. the 41 year old drove from canada the to a and a b,
3:22 pm
w. golf using cooking oil. the leaders that i had in 1987 vw golf, a 1.6 liter diesel, named laura visa and one of them that also random oil. yes. is that expedition from canada to chilly last week? 22 month window? is it ethics? place you on that kind of, we covered 17 countries and we had 11 total who boarded and disembarked at various points. it wasn't like newburn severe, is there a $101.00 over at that time for adult to have the idea of using the car to educate people the securing funding for the trip. he visited, schools displayed the car and explained the concepts of recycling. give hello, what was incredible, was meeting very remote indigenous communities throughout latin america and in between us and to our maybe can reaching all the capital city that start like gabriella and collaborating with everyone with the messages of caring for the
3:23 pm
environmental tone. we. i'm being that we helped highlight the importance of rivers, you know, for us in the struggle to take care of and defend the rivers and the need to educate people about environmental issues related to rivers. eh, b, e, a. u, i didn't know. gotcha. and but also the current camper isn't just for his own use. the also drives at the schools in the south of the country and provides environmental education there. he carried out most of the modifications needed to make the camper run on oil himself. with the help of a mechanic friend a month to see to cause units harder to co pay, then to install an oil system in the car. in the end, it's adding an extra fuel line and bringing hot water to the system. you have out of lay out what can be and they, i say the original engine was
3:24 pm
not disturb during the modification. there were merely a few parts added in and see the radiator has an extended water circuits in quiet which we take to the external tank at the back, extending the now we have the main engine idea tiers. the injection part you said says here you can see the injectors and you've been able here we have the water after it's run through the cooling system. it cools the engine with the. busy before it gets to the radiator, we take it out a most ago. i worked at the end and send it through this hot waterloo that was extended to the external oil tank at the back. i was i didn't see that as you know . thank you. the hot water from the engine compartment comes here to the back of the oil tank had is drained off for the extra water circuit. and with the help of this spiral of water, the oil is constantly heated. another water spiral was installed in the engine
3:25 pm
compartment where there's a filter imbedded in this way. the oil arriving from the tank is kept warm until the end and is filtered again in front of the injection pump. there were some teething problems at the beginning of july and shrugs of concerns that lines filter as an injection pumps could break the mutation phase it on a lot of people say all the injectors are going to fail to visit and they see them all diesel cars need the same maintenance you then you had a diesel car without oil. cnn said you still have to make changes come yet you still have to do maintenance on injection. daughters have on by and so with oil it's the same. you mean, and the more you take care to filter and you can't the oil, the longer you can maintain it and guide is a month. and you also can recommend this type of converted drive train to many people, especially travelers and long distance drivers. but he also thinks the mods make sense for school buses and garbage trucks. in
3:26 pm
addition to the technical upgrade. but don't forget the camper, a new color photos of the case. i feel like i'm doing the right thing. even though i drive slower and i get dirtier because i have to filter the oil and collect the oil. but i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment. paper. and i'm hoping to let other people know that they can also do so. and they can do it by recycling oil and converting all old diesel engines to vegetable oil is never going to happen. not all engines are suitable for the conversion offers no benefit for short journeys. and the time it takes to collect and filter in the oil, as well as the slower driving is likely to deter many people. but for those who still want to enjoy traveling in a vehicle that runs on recycled oil,
3:27 pm
but also may have the right solution for cross border inter continental transport. the when the overview of, when i say i want transport from pad of going into alaska to be intercontinental public transport. i'm thinking there would be some vehicle. yeah, yeah. for vehicles of equal always criss crossing, the american lady got see and the aim is to spread. the idea that began here at the foot of the act of the week of ok now across the entire western hemisphere. but all photo will travel many miles to achieve this goal. and who knows, maybe one day you'll find himself on a bus running on recycled cooking oil from patagonia to alaska. the
