Transforming used cooking oil into biodiesel isn’t just recycling; it’s a commitment to sustainability.

What oil is suitable for recycling?

  • Vegetable oils, canola oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, and olive oil are among the commonly recycled cooking oils.
  • Additives in certain oils may affect the quality and suitability for biodiesel production.
  • Oils that have been used for non-food purposes, such as motor oil or industrial lubricants, are considered hazardous waste and should not be mixed with cooking oils for recycling.
