Schematic showing containers with WVO (ie obtained from restaurants) and a container with provisions to filter the waste vegetable oil (WVO). The provisions are:

  • a muslin (marked with "1")
  • a tap (marked with "4")

The waste vegetable oil from the smaller containers is first poured trough the muslin into the large container (barrel). The tap of the barrel seperates/siphons off the oil from the food contaminants that collect at the bottom

  • "2" marks the waste vegetable oil (indicated with a yellowish color)
  • "3" marks the food contaminants collecting at the bottom of the container

Note that after the primary filtering shown in this image, the partly filtered WVO is transferred to the biodiesel reactor where it is heated to 60°C and circulated for 4 hours.[1]
