"MOL will from mid-May collect waste cooking oil at its 100 petrol stations and make bio-fuel from it,” spokeswoman Andrea Pánczél announced. The cooking oil will be processed by Rossi Biofuel’s unit in Komárom.The average Hungarian household consumes three litres of cooking oil a month, 75% of which is used for frying. Many use oil five times, which is unhealthy. Most households then pour the oil into toilets, polluting water, Népszabadság adds."
