What is PÖL? Definition & Explanation

Hi.
What exactly is 'Pöl'?
I'm now referring to Ald* because that's where the oil is currently the cheapest.
There is sunflower oil, and there is vegetable oil from rapeseed.
Is this completely crazy? Or does it have to be pure vegetable oil?

I'd like to try that, but not on a brand new common-rail diesel engine, but on an old Seat Terra, a real antique diesel.
Is rapeseed oil related to rapeseed?
Or how should I interpret this?

Hi Frank,
The fuel prices are driving me crazy.
PS: The maximum planned utilization is 50%.

Okay, be honest, do you think this is just reinventing the wheel? What do you think about the relevant forums on this topic, of which there are plenty? Google is your friend. Or should we just do the research for you? I don't think anyone wants to do that!

@matthiasTDI96

My question is essentially about the term 'Rapsoel' and 'Ald* plant oil based on rapeseed' – are they the same thing?
You're right, I can find the rest of the information elsewhere.
Best regards, Frank.

@ F B:

"Pöl," short for Pflanzenöl, is a general term for all oils extracted from oil-bearing plants by pressing their fruits. This includes, of course, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, nettle oil, and many others.

Plant-based oils are typically offered as refined products in large supermarket chains. However, you can also purchase cold-pressed oils at oil mills.
It is important not to confuse this type of oil with RME (Rapeseed Methyl Ester), which is biodiesel. In this process, rapeseed oil is transesterified using a complex method to significantly reduce its viscosity (to the level of diesel).

If you search using the terms I mentioned earlier (Google, Pöl forums), you will find plenty of information.

Alex.

Hi Alex,
'Ald* oil, which is based on rapeseed, has NOTHING to do with rapeseed methyl ester.'

THAT was what I wanted to know.
THANK YOU!
Best regards, Frank.

Well, if we generously overlook the fact that RME is produced from rapeseed oil...
THEN you are right.
