Let's fly an airplane with tempura oil!! Project
Enjoy learning SDGs environmental education in the classroom
This project has also been featured in the Chubu Shimbun.
"'Waste cooking oil is made from rapeseed and other plants. Plants grow by absorbing CO2, which creates a cycle that is environmentally friendly.' The oil used in school lunches includes methanol, etc.We also conducted an experiment to extract biodiesel fuel by mixing Mr. Todate said, ``It is important not to throw things away too soon, and to be kind to the earth.'' Peace was implemented as part of career education to develop problem-solving skills and imagination..

“Practical” Environmental Education Project for Decarbonization
With the theme of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which is produced from waste cooking oil, etc., which has attracted a lot of attention in the media in recent years, practical efforts toward decarbonization will be presented through the current state of the global environment and the ancient Japanese spirit of Mottainai. introduceVisiting classto hold.
Opportunities for local schools, PTAs, companies, governments, local residents, industry, academia, government and citizens, and children to come together to learn about and think about environmental problems, and to demonstrate practical activities to develop leaders for a sustainable society. provide.

* We can also make proposals that suit your school's convenience, such as conducting only on-site classes or online classes.

About flying an airplane with tempura oil
★Operating method/Notes★
① I hope that the PTA will take the lead and take responsibility for the existing committees at each school.
The Junior Chamber International Japan will visit the school.
② For used tempura oil, please consult with the school and decide where to put it and when to collect it.
(Example: Days when there is an event such as a sports day, etc.)
⑤ Public awareness activities (appeal to children's guardians and local residents)I would like
⑥ Collected items will be collected for a fee (5 yen per kg). Feel free to use the earnings.
⑦ Collection will be done by Revo International Co., Ltd. We will contact you to arrange a collection date. In addition, basically it will be collected at the stage of collecting 20 kg or more.
⑧ Put the used cooking oil in a container, etc., and put it in the collection box as it is.
★Request★
① When implementing this activity at schools, we would like you to implement it in the flow of collecting waste cooking oil after conducting a visiting class so that you can feel that this initiative is contributing to the environment.
② A SAF manufacturing plant is currently under construction with a view to commercialization in 2025.
★About safety★
① The flash point of oil (the temperature at which it burns when brought close to fire) is 300-320°C.
② The ignition point of oil (the temperature at which the oil itself burns) is 370-400°C
(Source: Fire Research Institute).
③ When transporting, please cool it sufficiently before transporting it.
* In addition, each elementary school in Fuji City has been collecting waste cooking oil for about 10 years, but so far there have been no safety problems. However, it has a slight smell, so it is recommended to set up a collection box in a place where people do not gather.
