UCO (Used cooking oil)

Powering Sustainable Fuels with Reliable Used Cooking Oil

Used Cooking Oil (UCO) is a recycled liquid feedstock recovered from restaurants, food processing facilities, and commercial kitchens after use in frying and cooking. It is a valuable, low-carbon feedstock for producing biodiesel (FAME), hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), and other renewable fuels, since it does not compete with virgin food crops. Prime Elements specializes in sourcing, aggregating, and delivering UCO to fuel producers worldwide, contributing to the circular economy and reducing carbon emissions across the energy landscape.
