Every gallon of waste vegetable oil that gets recycled into fuel is one less gallon of petroleum

diesel that is needed.  Every gallon of WVO that is used to generate fuel is one less gallon that

needs to be imported from somewhere else.  This leads to less dependence on foreign fuel

sources and decreases air pollution by eliminating the need for increased costs and emissions

created by importing fuel from across the globe.

 

Waste Oil Recyclers collects used cooking oil.  Sure our vehicles use some fuel during

collection, but our routes are extremely efficient due to enhanced software, which allows

us to only go to a location when needed rather than wasting fuel and guessing when to

make collections.  The amount of fuel we burn pales in comparison to the amount of

energy used to extract and ship fossil fuels.  Waste Oil Recyclers ‘ collection trucks run

on Biodiesel and our Service and Sales vehicles are fueled with used fryer oil that has

been processed into a fuel grade WVO.

 

The state of Pennsylvania has mandated that all on-road diesel sold has to contain

at least 2% biodiesel.  This is part of an effort in many states across the nation to

meet the RFS2 Advanced Biofuel goal to use 800 million gallons of Biodiesel in 2011

and 1 Billion gallons of Biodiesel.  These goals when met, will achieve a CO2 reduction

that is equal to the annual emissions of 3 coal-fired power plants.  On average, coal-fired

power plants emits over 4 Million metric tons of CO2 per year per plant.

  

Biofuels increase supply and decrease cost for everyone, especially when waste fryer oil is utilized which avoids using virgin crops and interfering with the food supply.  Biofuels allow for a local waste derived product to fuel local economies, creating practical solutions to sustain future generations.
