New WVO Conversion Plant in DC!
Biodiesel magazine reports on a merger between two DC-area biodiesel companies that will enhance their Waste Vegetable Oil collection capabilities. They'll also have a plant to process the WVO:
"DCB’s (DC BioDiesel's) facility will be a 7.5 MMgy state-of-the-art biodiesel production facility capable of producing ASTM D 6751-grade biodiesel from a wide range of feedstocks and being certified as a BQ-9000 facility, a rigorous standard set by the industry and recognized by its customer base. DCB will be able to blend biodiesel with ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel at all blend levels from B2 to B20 for fleet customers on its premises and also supply home heating oil to area residents in winter months. This plant will be operational in late 2013. -
And, in case you didn't know...
"As the U.S. EPA and the U.S. DOE’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory have determined, biodiesel made from WVO reduces net GHG emissions by at least 80 percent when compared to the ULSD it displaces, and that reduction is even higher when the fuel is produced from local feedstocks and consumed locally, as the DCB-TSB plan envisions. No other transportation fuel available in today’s market, “advanced” or otherwise, can make that claim."
