The frying process is very popular and is part of any culture worldwide therefore, deep fryers are essential for restaurants and food companies. However they:
a) are energy inefficient
b) generate millions of litres of waste oil/year in Europe (305M litres of used oil per year in Spain). Waste oil is harmful and is found in rivers, lakes… 1 litre of used oil pollutes 40,000 litres of water, equivalent to the annual water consumption of a person at home ,
c) produce blacken and burnt food due to an improper frying process (temperature, time, oil state..): it can cause foodborne illness
d) produce toxic elements that are in contact with food. Some of them are cancerous.
e) are of high risk of fire or accident: oil is a highly flammable liquid. Specialised personnel must attend fryers all the time to avoid burnt food and to prevent starting a fire or injuries. In addition, they require the installation of exhaust ducts and fire extinguishers.
