Biodiesel and Food Security

May 17, 2026

Using *used* cooking oil for fuel is crucial because it doesn't compete with the food supply, unlike 'first-generation' biofuels made from fresh vegetable oils.

Proper management of Used Cooking Oil (UCO) and other waste oils is a crucial part of operating restaurant and industrial businesses today. It not only helps protect the environment but can also create additional value and return revenue sustainably to your business.

Benefits of Proper Management

  • Reduce legal risks and environmental fines
  • Enhance corporate image for social responsibility (CSR/ESG)
  • Tangibly convert waste into additional income
  • Promote the circular economy towards biodiesel and clean energy production
