From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank: The Complete Guide to Using Vegetable Oil as an Alternative Fuel
There is no doubt that we need to find safer fuels, but vegetable oil fuels are not safe for people with food allergies. Corn based ethanol causes me to have severe allergic reactions, because I’m allergic to corn. Canola oil would be a hazard for me, too. Other people are severely allergic to soy and peanut oils, and fuel made from them would cause serious reactions. Petroleum fuels cause many health problems, but lets not dump the frying pan into the tank, without considering the health risks to people with allergies. No commonly eaten food should be used for fuel, that does put the food fumes directly into allergy victims respiratory systems. This is a serious hazard. I’m sure there are plant materials that could be used for biodiesel fuel, that wouldn’t risk the health, and lives, of millions of people. It is claimed that people with allergies don’t react to the oils, but nothing could be further from the truth. Most of us do react to our allergens, in the form of oil. We need to make our fuels safer for everyone, but not replace one hazardous fuel, with another equally hazardous version.
