CEC to put used cooking oil to work! Will run tractors and mowers on biodiesel produced on the property!

Centerville, Indiana - Cope Environmental Center was recently awarded a grant from the Norcross Wildlife Foundation to purchase a FuelMeister II. This piece of equipment will convert used cooking oil (from restaurant fryers) to biodiesel suitable for use in tractors, lawn mowers, and even vehicles. CEC will be partnering with the local Elks Lodge and Country Club to make this long-awaited effort a reality. “I’m really looking forward to this project and partnership. Hopefully, this will help us both and do something good for the environment at the same time,” said Glen Alexander, General Manager at Elks.  continue reading »
