HUGR Systems Delivers Used Cooking Oil Tank to Central Florida Zoo
05/15/03 -- Joe Montisano, the C.E.O. of the Central
Florida Zoo wanted a deep fryer. The patrons and employees have long
wanted fries to sell at the concession stand. There was only one
drawback: Used grease.
Pleased with the success and notoriety his new HUGR CleanCut48
lawnmower is providing he concocted a plan. Calling HUGR, he asked if they could use the old oil.
He calculated that his new HUGR CleanCut48 was using about two gallons per
week. If they changed the fryer oil once per week, he'd create the perfect
disposal method: His new mower!
HUGR agreed, especially in the interest of creating a "closed loop"
wherein oil used at the zoo for cooking becomes part of a cycle ending in
fuel for the mower. A fifteen gallon tank with a filtered funnel was
delivered.
The zoo is looking forward to the next fuel delivery, knowing that they
are taking advantage of every last drop of potential energy. And
reducing pollution and America's dependence on foreign sources of energy.
