Repurpose and reuse
Repurposing and reusing used cooking oil provides alternative stock feeds to our farming communities.
Scanline knew 50 years ago what we all know now: the need to recycle common products for a sustainable and healthy environment is essential.
Since those early days, we have invested in engineering safe, sustainable and planet-friendly renewable fuels and animal stock feed.
Don’t tip it down the drain
It is easy to think of hot cooking oil as a liquid that you can tip down the drain like excess water. The reality is very different.
When hot oil cools, it solidifies and will eventually block your drain. It can also damage sewer pipes, creating an overflow that may result in hefty fines and a great deal of expense.
By engaging Scanline’s free oil collection service, you eliminate this risk, protecting your business from unnecessary repair work, potential fines and damaged reputation.
Saving the pressure on landfill
Placing used cooking oil in the bin requires using a plastic bag, which doesn’t break down. The hardened oil may still end up in a sewage system or body of water and can affect local communities and wildlife. The oil in your bin will create an unwanted odour that can attract rodents.
By recycling used cooking oil, it is being repurposed as an environmentally friendly resource that has a positive and sustainable outcome for the planet.
Used to create a renewable fuels
When professionally and environmentally treated, used cooking oil can contribute to a cleaner and safer environment. The product can be repurposed as an ingredient to create renewable fuels.
Renewable diesel is an add-in diesel to petroleum that can help power trucks and trains. It assists in reducing our dependence on petroleum fuels that are more harmful to the environment. Renewable diesel can be used in 100% concentration and is a drop-in replacement for petroleum-based diesel.
It can be put back into the fuel grid and diesel trucks and machinery can run with no performance issues and emit significantly less carbon than traditional fossil fuels. Renewable diesel is similar in chemical composition to fossil diesel but emits fewer few greenhouses gas (GHG) emissions on a lifecycle basis.
Animal stock feed
Recycled cooking oil provides more energy and calories in a smaller amount of food, helping keep the livestock healthy, despite the restrictive weather.
With Scanline, your waste cooking oil becomes a sustainable resource that has a lasting and positive impact on the environment.
