Re: [Biofuel] Biodiesel, Solar Turn Cheese Guy’s Truck Green | Domestic Fuel
Just to be clear: Biodiesel is quieter than traditional fuel and only has organic emissions. Added lubricity may help a diesel engine run smoother/quieter. Organic emissions??? Let's hope not. Organic emissions from combustion would be unburned hydrocarbons . not desirable. Another alternative fuel addition The Cheese Guy wants to make is replacing propane with natural gas. Alternative fuel addition??? Propane is a specific gas refined from natural gas. Natural gas is a mix of gases that includes methane. Both produce the same emissions. Natural gas contains methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, and so, would be very harmful to the environment if released unburned. Propane is more energy-dense. Natural gas is generally cheaper per BTU. Which is preferable? If cost and availability aren't issues, propane gets the nod because it is less harmful to the environment if released unburned. Great to hear that The Cheese Guy is going green. Waste veg oil to biodiesel - fuel that emits lower levels of Carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, sulfur, and fewer organics (unburned hydrocarbons); all good. The Carbon emitted as carbon dioxide when BD is burned is part of the current carbon cycle (good) vs petro diesel which emits carbon that has been sequestered for millions of years, overwhelming the current cycling process and thus contributing to global warming (bad). i.e. Biodiesel is an appropriate alternative to petro diesel for a number of very real reasons. + Waste veg oil is an appropriate feedstock for BD production. Appropriate technology. Economy of scale. Sort of a JtF mantra.

This news release posted on EIN News says Oklahoma-based Wil Braggs, aka “The Cheese Guy,” has started a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to help him buy a brand new gourmet green energy food truck called the Mean Green Purple Machine. This truck is intended to be powered by solar generated energy. Sunlight is free obviously and solar power is an effective, simple and often overlooked energy choice. The Cheese Guy is committed to implementing solar inverter technology in order to charge batteries with sunlight. A new food truck would enable The Cheese Guy to utilize solar power for the brand new Mean green purple machine. Another form of alternative energy is biodiesel which is formed from vegetable oil. Biodiesel is quieter than traditional fuel and only has organic emissions. The Cheese Guy intends to use biodiesel from recycled plant oil to run their engine and also their generator. This would be the first true biodiesel powered food truck. It is this groundbreaking innovation that has the ability to change the thinking of food truck owners everywhere.

This would be the first true biodiesel powered food truck. It is this groundbreaking innovation that has the ability to change the thinking of food truck owners everywhere. This influence is possible in part because these changes are easy to do. Another innovation is the use of natural gas as an alternative fuel to propane. Once again natural gas tanks are cheaper in the long run anyway. The Cheese Guy is even dedicated using recycled organic products whenever possible even using straws made out of corn. The Cheese Guy features an extensive menu of traditional grill and international favorites. Some of the menu items include fried mozzarella sticks, wontons, smoked chicken, egg rolls and bacon wrapped stuffed jalapenos. The truck has now introduced slow cooked Caribbean cuisine in addition to their Tex-Mex style food. They have also worked to incorporate food which is gluten free as well as some vegetarian friendly options. The Cheese Guy is a self-made culinary scientist, do it yourself engineer and even a good entertainer as part of providing superior customer service. The truck is known throughout Tulsa as a purveyor of delicious food and the best fusion cuisine Tulsa has ever seen. The Cheese Guy already caters to private events like weddings and other major events. The atmosphere they provide is very fun and friendly including upbeat music. This is made possible because of the fun hard working group of professionals that are part of The Cheese Guy team. This experienced group of cooks and customer service staff are driven
