Yes, You Can Recycle Cooking Oil
SHARE

Are you guilty of pouring leftover cooking oil down the drain after frying chicken or sautéing veggies? While it may seem convenient, this habit can have detrimental effects on your home’s plumbing and local sewage systems. The liquid oil may flow easily down the drain, but it can solidify and accumulate in pipes, leading to clogs and potential damage.

To prevent this issue, plumbers recommend collecting leftover cooking oil in a container beside the stove, just like Grandma used to do. By allowing the oil to cool and solidify in a container, you can safely dispose of it in the trash. However, there’s a more eco-friendly alternative to consider – recycling the cooking oil for use as alternative fuel.

Recycling used cooking oil can help reduce waste and provide a sustainable source of biofuel for diesel engines. Many commercial facilities already contribute to oil recycling efforts, but some programs also accept household donations of excess cooking oil. You can use Earth911 Recycling Search to find a recycling location near you that accepts cooking oil.

Some biofuel or biodiesel companies may offer additional drop-off locations around food-related holidays, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. Before recycling your cooking oil, be sure to follow the recycler’s guidelines for storage and preparation. Avoid mixing water with the oil, filter out any food particles, and store the oil in a tightly sealed container.

While the idea of filtering bits of food out of old oil may not sound appealing, it’s a small price to pay compared to dealing with clogged drains later on. By recycling your cooking oil, you can reduce waste, contribute to sustainable fuel production, and protect your home’s plumbing.

So next time you’re done cooking, think twice before pouring that oil down the drain. Consider recycling it for a more environmentally friendly and responsible disposal method. Your actions today can have a positive impact on the environment and help create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
