Conoco, Tyson Alliance on biodiesel from Animal Fat
Conoco, Tyson Alliance on biodiesel from Animal Fat
Conoco-Phillips and Tyson Foods have announced plans to team up to make biodiesel fuel out of animal fat, according to a report @ The Wall Street Journal
Tyson produces over 300 million gallons of beef, pork and chicken fat each year. The company plans to ship about 60 percent of its fat to a Conoco-Phillips plant for processing. The remaining 40 percent will be used in cosmetics, soap and pet food, as it is now.
