2007年7月起麥當勞卡車用薯條油
麥當勞(McDonald's)用來炸薯條和雞塊的油,不久還將成為其送貨卡車的燃料。這家快餐連鎖公司將開始把烹飪用油轉化為生物柴油。
The oils that sizzle McDonald's fries and chicken nuggets will soon also stoke its trucks, as the fast food chain starts converting its cooking oil into biodiesel.
麥當勞計劃在年底前,讓其英國公司的155輛送貨卡車用上生物柴油,這些柴油完全是由其餐館收集的烹飪用油制成的。
McDonald's plans to run its 155 UK delivery trucks on biodiesel made entirely from cooking oil collected from its restaurants by the end of the year.
到目前為止,這家快餐集團的卡車使用的燃油中,95%是柴油,5%是生物柴油。該公司計劃在開始時,使用85%的生物柴油和15%的菜籽油混合而成的燃油。
The fast-food group, which to date has been running trucks on 95 per cent diesel and 5 per cent biodiesel, will initially use a blend of 85 per cent biodiesel and 15 per cent rapeseed oil.
