Austria's Valorcycle Tackles Used Cooking Oil Waste, Aims to Become Global Model
Austria is losing thousands of litres of used cooking oil (UCO) into its sewage systems and canals annually. Valorcycle Innovations, a pioneer in UCO recycling, is stepping up to tackle this issue. The company, led by CEO Omar Ismail, aims to transform Austria into a model country for UCO collection and circular energy.
Valorcycle Innovations combines local collection expertise, digital innovation, and world-class processing excellence to make UCO recycling efficient and scalable. The company's GreenPan App simplifies UCO collection for partner businesses, ensuring transparency and scalability.
In collaboration with Tagaddod, Valorcycle converts UCO into biodiesel, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%. This innovative approach has earned the support of the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation, and Technology. The ministry is backing Valorcycle's mission to recycle UCO and convert it into biodiesel, contributing to Austria's sustainability goals.
Valorcycle Innovations, through its GreenPan Austria initiative, is setting a new standard in UCO recycling. With its unique combination of local, global, and digital strengths, the company is expanding awareness campaigns and digital tools to track carbon savings from UCO recycling. Omar Ismail, the company's CEO, envisions Austria leading the way in UCO collection and circular energy, demonstrating that waste can be transformed into a valuable resource.
