Crushed moringa seeds make dirty water transparent within a short time frame. Biodegradable, moringa provides potentially renewable materials for treating water supplies. “The seed attracts and aggregates negatively charged particles like clay and bacteria turning low, medium, and high morbidity water into tap water quality.
In addition to the seed, the bark, root, fruit, flowers, leaves, and gum have nutritional, antiseptic, or material value. For example, the bark and root are used to make soaps and spice, while the seed oil has been used for cooking, and the leaves are said to have more nutrition than spinach.

A Restaurant Problem Becomes a Solution - New York Times
THE quest for secondhand fryer oil to use as a motor fuel sometimes turns on the question of whom you know. But as some restaurant owners and managers have discovered, it is also a question of who you are and what you do for a living. Take David Selig, the 41-year-old owner of five restaurants in Brooklyn and Manhattan. Cooking flash-fried rice balls, lotus-root chips and vegetarian meatballs, his kitchens produce as much as 70 gallons of waste oil each week — sometimes more than twice the amount needed to run the Dodge Sprinter diesel van that Mr. Selig uses in his restaurant and catering businesses....
Baruch Ben-Yehudah, who runs Everlasting Life, a health food restaurant in Capitol Heights, Md., fills his 1991 Mercedes-Benz with oil that had been used to fry tofu, potatoes and vegetable patties. “It’s not just the money,” he said. “I did it because I saw what we were doing to the environment and did not want my children to see their father contributing to the problem.” And he added: “I believe in being energy independent. I do not want to give someone else power over my life.” Mr. Ben-Yehudah seems to have converted more than his car when he installed a kit from Greasel.com, which has since changed its name to Golden Fuel Systems. He became so enthusiastic about vegetable oil that he started a company, Plantroleum.com, to install conversion kits.
As he sees it, even paying full price for new vegetable oil is better than buying fossil fuel. “If I don’t have enough filtered used oil, I’ll go out and buy new oil for my car,” he said. “I can get vegetable oil for $2.45 a gallon, and diesel fuel goes for $3.09 around here — and that’s not counting the additional cost of what it does to the environment. “Vegetable oil is the perfect solution,” he added. “It’s renewable and unending".
