Can you specify the process of oxidation in this case? Is it naturally occuring, as surface oxidation from a sitting vat, or from the cooking process. Can this fire be as a result of accumulation of oil on a surface that the oil may have precipitated onto? Or maybe saturated into? Used oil can have many, many other chemicals in it. Have a particular idea for how it was used? Small fire, or a consuming one? -AI |

The fire concerned is reported to have been initated on the surfaceof crumb waste, post cooking (8-12 hour shift. It is thought to be primarily initated by atmospheric surface oxidation of a saturated medium. |
