Used Cooking Oil (UCO)
Used cooking oil is a sustainable raw material collected from food service establishments and households, later processed and converted into renewable fuel – biodiesel.
UCO is characterized by low carbon dioxide emissions and represents a sustainable solution for decarbonizing the transport sector. The primary application of UCO is biodiesel production through transesterification, resulting in UCOME (Used Cooking Oil Methyl Ester). This biodiesel meets strict quality and emission standards.
Using UCO in biodiesel production can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 85% compared to conventional diesel. Moreover, UCO use helps address waste management issues and promotes a circular economy.
Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME)
FAME is biodiesel produced from vegetable oils or recycled fats. It is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional diesel, helping to reduce harmful emissions and contributing to sustainable transport development.
Various feedstocks are used for FAME production: rapeseed, sunflower, soybean and palm oils. FAME can also be produced from animal fats or used cooking oil (UCO).
FAME biodiesel is most commonly used in transport (B7 fuel standard – diesel containing up to 7% biodiesel). However, it can also be used as an industrial fuel for heating or electricity generation.
Ethanol for Transport
Ethanol used in the transport sector is a renewable fuel that helps reduce dependence on fossil fuels and lower harmful exhaust emissions.
Ethanol is blended with gasoline – the most common blend is E10 (10% ethanol), but more countries are moving toward higher blends like E15 or E20. Flex-Fuel Vehicles are specially designed to use E85 fuel, which contains up to 85% ethanol.
Ethanol is a clear, colorless alcohol that emits fewer pollutants when burned than fossil fuels. It is biodegradable, low in toxicity and has a high octane rating, thus enhancing engine performance.
Ethanol is produced by fermenting sugary or starchy raw materials such as corn or triticale. During fermentation, microorganisms convert sugars into ethanol, which is then distilled and purified. Recently, increasing attention has been paid to second-generation bioethanol made from waste materials.
Industrial Ethanol
Industrial ethanol is denatured ethyl alcohol widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries as a solvent, disinfectant, or additive in various production processes. It is a high-quality product that meets strict industrial standards.
Ethanol is a universal solvent used in the production of paints, varnishes, adhesives and cleaning agents. In the chemical industry, it is used for manufacturing ethyl acetate, diethyl ether, acetic acid and other compounds. In pharmaceuticals, it is an ingredient in hand sanitizers and antiseptics.
In the cosmetics and hygiene industry, ethanol is incorporated into mouthwashes, deodorants and perfumes. In the food industry, it may be used as a preservative to extend shelf life. Due to its low freezing point, ethanol is also used in the production of cooling fluids.
