saints, but to stick around coming up next our car shall rev, looked at whether recycled vegetable oil is actually an environmentally friendly solution for old combustion engines. and remember, if you need more news on the go, you can always check out d, w dot com or follow us on social media for a handle. is that the w news? i'm here until the berlin. thanks for joining us. the, the untold story for details going to be funded here repos every weekend on d w. that has to go to do you do this? i played tennis. she survived the ocean bits. thanks to music.

he was the nazis favorite conductor. decisions under the swastika, a documentary about the sounds of power and inspiring story about survival. music in nazi germany, watching out one youtube dw documentary 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 uses it to power his camper. van visa converts cancel the if i feel i'm doing the right thing, i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment. is mission with a camera to educate people about recycling is gold. a 3 cross border transport solutions. 6, i'm assuming that we're in

a key of frontier 4 by 4 from 2004 with a 2.9 liter diesel engine. and it runs flawlessly and seats 6 people, regardless of what we've been averted into a camper company. what makes this camper special? it runs on recycled cooking oil. this vehicle is called the edge of camper who can fit the edge you can for has to fuel used cooking oil and diesel tv and it has 2 fuel lines. rodolfo used as a small on board 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 with 100 percent vegetable oil. and what's essential is that it's heated 1st now use diesel until the water from the radiator warms up. and once the

water is hot, that heats the oil within the oil tank was a coil system or a water heater system. it's been thrown by heating the vegetable oil in a separate chain. the alternative fuel 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 and the mission systems. it's very robust, not the even though it's not an oil vehicles can be converted to run on oil, just 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 i'm, i saved them perfect, so you definitely have to do a little research before adapting the vehicle, a bit of an indian. but if there are specific simple motors that also always work in the same way. see, and then that i mean my monitor,

the onboard computer helps rodolfo switch from diesel to oil very easily. even while driving police 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 as much more attention i paid to the oil the longer my engine will perform. ringback i have to filter the oil, you have to, if it's been decanted for a long time, the impurities will have settled at the bottom. it will go when i say good, but if this is the oil i collected a short while ago,

you might have particles or french fries, or have been yada is, or chicken, or anything that has been cooked in it to my, within the system with a my oil fuel line, there's another filter that again, filters, minor particles speak, it was. so here at this point i really try to capture all the bigger particles on bass over the after the 1st feel traction process. but also looking for the oil straight into is 10, which is located at the back of the camper. its capacity is $100.00 leaders, which lets the vehicle travel around 800 kilometers. the good because if i'm going to cover long distances, i can carry several drums and fuel to the oil anywhere. to say i use 100 percent oil. if it was a, 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 for that. use

that look. but you can't just use any oil from the kitchen. if the oil is mixed with 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 get into the 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, the, to my system can withstand sheet to 40 degree 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. and the 2 thousands, some cars in europe ran on vegetable oil and 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 late and a b, w. golf using cooking oil. the leaders the allowed out i had a 1987 vw golf, a 1.6 liter diesel named laura visa and one of them that also ran on oil. yes. is that expedition from canada to chilly lasted 22 months or so? is it ethics? place you on that kind of, we covered 17 countries and we had 11 people who boarded and disembarked at various points. it wasn't like an uber official yet, or is it a 100 and for one over at that time for adult to have the idea of using the car to educate people that securing funding for the trip. he visited schools, displayed the car, and explained the concept 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, the scarlet coma and collaborating with everyone with the messages of caring for the environmental zone. we, i'm being that we helped highlight the importance of rivers, you know, are use in the struggle to take care of and defend the rivers. and they need to educate people about environmental issues related to rivers, a, b, e, a, u, i didn't level. gotcha. and but also its current camper isn't just for his own use . the also drives it to 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 an oil and himself with the help of a mechanic friend. a mother causing it's harder to cook, pay than 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 layout. what are the and they, i say the original engine was

not disturb during the modification. there were merely a few parts added. it does a lot of things. 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 the name on here. we have the water after it's run through the cooling system, cools the engine model and the 5th one of the. busy before it gets to the radiator, we take it out and i most i go, i work 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 ask you at the associated. thank you. the hot water from the engine compartment comes here to the back of the oil tank that is drained off through 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 compartment where there's a filter embedded 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. plaza chillen shrugs of concerns that lines filter as an injection. ponce could break the motor again. these are all 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 see nothing. you still have to make change of this kind of you, you still have to do maintenance on injection thoughts 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 on got it. so i'm going to pro, don't folk can recommend this type of converted drive train to many people, especially travelers and long distance drivers. but he also thinks the months make

sense for school buses and garbage trucks. in addition to the technical upgrade for adult, forget the camper, a new color of the coach of the page. 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 the filter in the oil, as well as the slower drive it is likely to determine many people. but for those

who still want to enjoy traveling in a vehicle that runs on recycled oil, 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 a last, could it be inter continental public transport? i'm thinking there would be some vehicle. yeah, yeah. for vehicles of equal always criss crossing, the american lady jesse 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 also data will travel many miles to achieve this goal. and who knows, maybe one day to find himself on a bus running on recycled cooking oil from patagonia to alaska. the
