Some notes below this.
The oil and fat tested came from the grease wastes of meat-processing plants and food servers here and in Boracay.
ASU President Dr. Benny Palma said the research conducted by the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) showed that the petroleum diesel blend can be used in a standard combustion engine without modification.
“Our study shows that these wastes (animal fat and vegetable oil) produce a clear liquid without an unpleasant smell and with the same properties as mineral fossil diesel oil,” Palma said.
The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) here has warned residents not to fly kites near the Kalibo International Airport.
I have to agree, those planes come in too low and still manage to bounce all over the place even on a calm day. My last flight, (Seair), I watched as our tires hit the concrete about 5 meters from the edge – which just poor piloting skills. So please, no kite flying to scare the pilots.
