  • What is used cooking oil (UCO)?
  • Last Month, Clean Fuels Alliance America released a report, compiled on their behalf by GlobalData, on the worldwide supply of used cooking oil (UCO). UCO is a low carbon intensive (CI) feedstock used for biodiesel and in high demand from producers and end users facing governmental policies related to carbon emissions.
  • Is used cooking oil a sustainable feedstock?
  • As demand for sustainable feedstock from the biofuel industry surges, used cooking oil (UCO) offers unlimited potential for supply, particularly from cities with large populations. But how can the industry assess the credibility of supply volumes and prevent unwanted products from entering the UCO supply chain?
  • Why are used cooking oil prices so volatile?
  • Traders and procurers of used cooking oil (UCO) encounter several challenges from price volatility to supply chain instability. UCO prices can be highly volatile due to fluctuating supply and demand dynamics, market speculation and varying feedstock costs, making it difficult for procurers to agree with suppliers on stable, long-term pricing terms.
  • How much oil is recovered as UCO?
  • This implies that a quarter of oil used in food is recovered as UCO. There is some room for growth in these collection rates. China has some room to increase their collection rates with around 15% of oil recovered. Countries with lower per capita oil consumption find collection more difficult.
