1 Fryer to Fuel Biodiesel Business Models Olof Hansen U.S. EPA Region 9 San Francisco, CA
2 Contents Benefits of Waste-derived Biodiesel Flexible Biodiesel Models from 3 West Coast Communities Commercial: Santa Cruz Fryer to Fuel Public: San Francisco Greasecycle Legal:Portland, OR City Ordinance Resources (Web, Documents, Grants, BMPs, etc.) 2
3 Benefits Waste-derived Biodiesel: Beyond Fossil Fuels and Soybeans
4 EPA s Support for Biodiesel Provides energy security: domestic, renewable energy/fuel source Reduction of virtually all regulated air emissions: 60% reduction of asthma-causing PM Up to 80% reduction of green house gases 100% reduction of sulfur oxides causing acid rain Great potential for resource conservation and energy recovery: used frying oil (UFO) as feedstock for biodiesel 4
5 Emission Change between Biodiesel and Petrodiesel 20? Percentage Greenhouse Gases Sulphur Oxides Particulates Air Toxics Nitrogen Oxides -100 B100
6 EPA s Support for Biodiesel (cont.) Lifecycle analysis shows great fossil energy ratio benefits: Petroleum Diesel 0.8 Soybean Biodiesel 3.2 Yellow Grease Biodiesel 4.6 Only alternative non-fossil fuel that passed the Clean Air Act Tier I and II health effects testing Less toxic and biodegradable - no need for Exxon-Valdez type spill cleanup 6
7 Why is it important in the Pacific Southwest? To reduce particulates in our air! 7
8 Benefits of Waste-derived Biodiesel Conserves Resources Up to 3 billion gallons of waste grease in the US Recovers Energy Diverts resources and energy away from landfills Saves Costs Waste grease costs a lot less than virgin soy oil Protects Water Quality and Infrastructure 80% of US sewage overflows from Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) Provides cradle-to-cradle economic model: Harvest urban crop for the local fleet 8
9 Why Focus on Waste Cooking Oil? EPA s Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC) Reduce waste, and reuse and recycle Recover energy lost in waste going to landfills U.S. Restaurants generate up to 3 billion gallons of waste cooking oil annually (U.S. EPA OSWER) San Francisco 3 billion gallons = 5,700 miles of tanker trucks end-to-end New York 9
10 Biodiesel Production versus Grease Generation in the US US Biodiesel Production Grease (both in Million Gallons)
11 High Energy Yield in Fats-Oil-Grease Residual Fats Rape Seed Cake Flotated Fats Food Waste Corn Silage Grass Silage Brewers' Grain Biosolids Green Waste Grass 1.Cut Sugar Beet Silage Whey Poultry Pig Manure Cattle Manure (Courtesy of M-Con Bio and Farmatic Biotech Energie AG, Yields in m3 gas/ton)
12 How can Biodiesel Solve Waste and Water Pollution Problems? By converting waste grease to a fuel commodity Diverts large waste stream from: Landfills or illegal dumping Publicly-owned treatment works (POTWs) Prevents spills and sewer blockages: 80% of sewer spills in the USA are caused by FOG (US EPA Office of Water) In a year, Los Angeles had about 800 sewer spills, due to pipes clogged by FOG 12
13 Flexible Biodiesel Models from West Coast Communities
14 Santa Cruz Project Urban Biofuels Initiative Final Report: A Guide for Coordinating a Fryer to Fuel Collection Program in Combined Urban/Suburban Areas 14
15 Commercial Biodiesel Business Model Recipe Dish: Locally-produced, sustainable biodiesel Serves: B5, B20 or B50 for local public fleets for a population of 150,000 people Ingredients: At least 100,000 gallons of waste grease/year generated by local restaurants/food preparing places. Commercial biodiesel plant within 200 miles. Liquid waste hauler(s) servicing local restaurants with truck(s) and containers. Public or commercial fleet(s) using diesel. Champion: Environmental or sustainability professionals within the public domain to motivate. Local environmental compliance inspectors regulating fats, oil, and grease from restaurants. 15
16 Santa Cruz Model for other Communities Fryer to bin to grease hauler for rendering to manufacturer for processing into biodiesel to distributor for blending and distribution to public fleets 16
17 Fryer to Fuel Found Solutions for these Challenges Tallow Collection Bad Specs Storage Consolidated Collection Grease Quality
18 Improved Storage Areas Before and after

21 San Francisco Public Utility Commission (Brown Grease, Yellow Grease, Food Waste)
22 Big City versus Mid-size Current Status (Oct08) SFGreasecycle (San Francisco) Fryer to Fuel (Santa Cruz) Budget $1.2 million $75,000 Number of Participating Restaurants Total Number of Restaurants in Area ( highest volume restaurants) 2600 Approximately 1000 Geography Dense urban Suburban/urban/ rural combination Staff 3 Full-time employees 1 full-time employee for the duration of the grant, work absorbed by existing public works staff, Environmental Compliance Inspectors Number of liquid waste haulers picking up fryer oil in region More than 10. Less than 3 licensed haulers, one main hauler. QA/QC requirements Same requirements as private enterprise (below) None for government, borne by private entities (below). 22
23 Economic and Ecological Benefits of San Francisco Project Green Collar Job Creation in Tough Economic Times Project will generate at least 70 direct jobyears and 39 indirect job-years Fuel Cost Savings San Francisco will save $225,000/ year in fueling costs for fleet Green House Gas Reductions Full scale project will reduce 39,000 tonnes of CO2e/yr
24 Legal Model (Portland, OR) Ordinance with mandatory goals Biofuel Requirements. (Amended by Ordinance No , effective January 12, 2007.) Goals: Summer 2007 B5 for all retailers By July 1, 2010 B10 throughout Portland 50% of the biodiesel sold in Portland needs to come from either: Recycled feedstock: used cooking oil, or Local agriculture: Canola, Flax, Sunflower or Safflower Biodiesel produced from a imported palm oil may not be used to satisfy the requirements of this Chapter.
