used cooking oil
Post-frying liquid fat
Used cooking oil is oil that has already been employed for frying or sautéing food.
Restaurants generate large quantities, which can be recycled into biodiesel fuel or sold to rendering companies.
Home cooks typically dispose of small amounts in the trash rather than down the drain, where it can clog pipes.
The fryer's used cooking oil needed changing after a week of heavy use.
