Yellow grease, also termed used cooking oil (UCO), used vegetable oil (UVO), recycled vegetable oil, or waste vegetable oil (WVO) is recovered from businesses and industry that use the oil for cooking. It is used to feed livestock, and to manufacture soap, make-up, clothes, rubber, and detergents.〔Murphy, Denis J. ''Plant lipids: biology, utilization, and manipulation''. Wiley-Blackwell, 2005, p. 117.〕 Due to competition from these other industrial sectors, the EIA estimates that less than a third of yellow grease could be spared for biodiesel production annually.〔Radich, Anthony (''Biodiesel Performance, Costs, and Use'' )〕 It is distinct from brown grease; yellow grease is typically used frying oils from deep fryers, whereas brown grease is sourced from grease interceptors.〔(Brown Grease Feedstocks for Biodiesel ).

Retrieved January 31, 2009〕 ==Other uses of the term== Yellow grease can also refer to lower-quality grades of tallow (cow or sheep fat) from animal rendering plants. The term has been in use for some time. A source from 1896 describes it as follows: "Yellow grease is made by packers. All the refuse materials of the packing houses go into the yellow grease tank, together with any hogs which may die on the packers' hands."〔Brannt, William Theodore and Schaedlerm Karl. (''A practical treatise on animal and vegetable fats and oils'' ). H.C. Baird, 1896, p. 110.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「yellow grease」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
