| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the cost friendly impact that using waste vegetable oil (WVO) to power diesel-engine rough mowers has on Whispering Creek Golf Club. Notes that the WVO adds no costs to reuse for the engines of the mowers for the golf course. Mentions that "a simple conversion kit allows the alternative fuel source to power the unit" using WVO. States that "they [Whispering Creek Golf Club] are protecting the environment by reducing diesel usage and saving the owners money each time the unit mows." |
