Oil reuse plan could cut carbon pollution

Published Date: 09 February 2009

FUEL made from used vegetable oil and animal fat is being used in a groundbreaking trial of a "green" oil that can be used in existing boilers to heat homes.
If the 12-month trial in Reepham, Norfolk is a success, the biodiesel could play a part in reducing the carbon footprint of almost two million homes in the UK and Ireland which currently use oil for heating and hot water.
