We as rock climbers travel all over the US. Yes most of us are treehuggers and care about the environment and the food we put in our body. We have a climbing hold company that even recycles old holds. So the idea of recycled veggie oil was a dream come true. Read about our trip in the News section of Woodys Holds.

We however have not given up!!! We now have a Dodge soon to be a veggie truck. We are a little smarter (not much) Any and all tips welcome!!!

Green-Trust Heat & Power System

an Anonymous Greaser - Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 17:20 Tags: links inline

"Green-Trust's combined heat & power system (VeggieGen) is under construction. The core of the system is a Detroit Diesel 2-71 12.5kw water cooled diesel generator provided by Affordable Power. This is fueled with a homemade veggie oil conversion system designed by Green Trust. The cooling system will pre-heat our domestic hot water (propane primary) with a heat exchanger, and the DHW system will keep the engine warm on cold nights for easy restarts.

Photo's of the VeggieGen, oil processing, and equipment can be found in our photo album.

This engine is a 2 cylinder, 142 cu. in. (71 x 2), 2-cycle, 40,000 hours between rebuild, 100% duty cycle (24x7x365) power plant. Parts are interchangeable with all the -71 series DD engines. See How Stuff Works for explanation of how a 2 stroke diesel works."
