The vegetable oil is collected in smaller amounts from restaurants and other oil users. After heating, and processing, the oil is clean and dry, which can be made into bio-diesel. Bio-diesel is a ecologically cleaner and better diesel fuel alternative. Any waste water is sent to an industrial waste water treatment plant. Waste sludge is solidified and land filled; These activities are regulated by the IL Department of Agriculture. Our IDA Permit Number is #90. Hauler Permit Number is B102.

Our unloading/loading, processing and tank storage areas are all on bermed, concrete slabs for complete secondary containment and spill/leak protection. In addition, we have developed a written ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT OPERATING SYSTEM that includes a Facility Spill, Fire, Injury Prevention and Contingency Plan, a written Mobile Spill, Fire, Injury Prevention and Contingency Plan, a written Facility Inspection Plan, a written Waste Characterization and Analysis Plan, and a written Closure Plan. We would be happy to furnish you with a copy of all.
