\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt our in-house laboratory, we specialize in comprehensive analysis and processing of Fats, Oils, and Greases (FOG) samples. Our team can analyze refined vegetable oils, used cooking oil (UCO), and varied industry samples of FOG and brown grease. We utilize standard industry methods including ASTM and AOCS methods to quantify and characterization of FOG.
What are the important properties to test in FOG and Brown Grease samples? These waste materials can have higher levels of contaminants than most other greases such as: \u2022 Higher Free Fatty Acid level (FFA), FFA (Free Fatty Acids) is a measurement of the acidity of the FOG material \u2022 Higher Moisture, Insoluble Impurities, and Unsaponifiables (MIU). The MIU value provides information about non-fat components of the FOG or brown grease \u2022 Higher sulfur and metals content, Certain proteins can release sulfur, detergents and degreasers, or food processing or some foods like onions and garlic. \u2022 Possible pesticide, surfactant, chemical contamination \u2022 Higher content of polymers, peroxides, and other degradation compounds Otherwise, brown grease has similar fuel properties to most other greases and heavy fuel oils Please contact rachel@processwerx.com to submit a sample for analysis to the ProcessWerx Lab.
