<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Schematic showing containers with WVO (ie obtained from restaurants) and a container with provisions to filter the waste vegetable oil (WVO).<br />
The provisions are:<br />
* a muslin (marked with "1")<br />
* a tap (marked with "4")<br />
<br />
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<br />
<br />
* "2" marks the waste vegetable oil (indicated with a yellowish color)<br />
* "3" marks the food contaminants collecting at the bottom of the container<br />
<br />
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.<ref>Practical self-sufficiency by Dick and James Strawbridge</ref><br />
