Zul-Mato-Crocens startup selected for COP26 in the UK – Education and Technology

Elected to the COP26, UN (UN) Conference on Climate Change, Mato Grosso do Sul will be the sole representative of the state at the event, which will take place in Oilbondo from November 1 to 12 in Glasgow, Scotland. Kingdom). A total of 20 Brazilian standard innovation companies were selected.

Statrick Mentona, the founder and architect of the startup, was present at the conference to test the company’s business model and show how it can solve the problem of disposing of cooking oil and turn it into clean energy.

“It will also benefit us by showing that our business can be arterial, visually appealing and attract more investors and customers,” he says, adding that being at the UN event will allow us to expand the collection of used cooking oil, and from today, only one site of Oilpondo does this.

The company has been around since the establishment of a collection point in a supermarket in Combo Grande in 2019. Today, a company (SP) in Andradina maintains the company’s new engine that counts oil automatically using a computerized system.

The perspective is that by 2022, there will be 100 collection points and each machine will be able to collect 800 liters of used oil per month. “We already have good partners, including being a multinational food producer and maintaining hygiene,” says Montona.

To encourage people to donate oil, the collection system evaluates who makes the delivery, and for each six liters donated product, one person receives a new bottle.

The company also sells one of its weapons, which it collects for companies that convert used cooking oil into biodiesel.
