Since our inception in 2007, WRE Biofuels has set itself apart as a leader in the production of advanced biofuels and chemicals. Today, we are the Intermountain West’s largest producer of environmentally friendly Biodiesel and operate the biggest seed oil crush plant in the United States.  Our Biodiesel is produced through environmentally friendly chemical processes using natural products. The end product is tested to ensure it meets the required ASTM standards and BQ-9000 quality certification. At WRE Biofuels we pride ourselves in producing a clean, renewable fuel from sustainable sources.  Each WRE Group company plays a vital role in the development of our Biodiesel. By managing the process from seed crop to natural fuel, WRE Group can carefully control all steps to ensure the highest-quality, most environmentally conscious product possible.

• WRE FEED & MILL
  partners with farmers to grow all-natural oilseed crops, such as soybeans and canola. More than 78 tons of seed a day are processed at our northern Utah crush plant. The resulting virgin oils are shipped to WRE Biofuel to be turned into Biodiesel

• WRE RECYCLERS

  collects used cooking oil, grease, and petroleum-based oils from businesses across the nation. These waste oils yield another source that WRE Biofuels refines into Biodiesel.

• WRE CHEM & PHARM

  takes the glycerin that’s naturally produced in the Biodiesel refinement process and purifies it for use by food makers, cosmetic manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies.

BIODIESEL

Biodiesel is a clean burning alternative fuel, produced from domestic, renewable resources. It can be used in compression-ignition (diesel) engines with little or no modifications. Biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics.  Biodiesel is made through a chemical process called transesterification. The process creates two products — methyl esters (the chemical name for Biodiesel) and glycerin, a useful product commonly found in soaps, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and many other products. Visit WRE Chem & Pharm for more information on glyercin.

Biodiesel is produced from renewable resources such as:

• Used cooking oil/grease and petroleum-based oil products collected from restaurants, automotive lube centers, and other businesses. WRE Recyclers provides collection and cleaning services. Visit WRE Recyclers for more information or how to become a collection partner.
• Soybeans and other oilseed crops. WRE Feed & Mill processes 78 tons of seed crops a day at the largest crush plant of its kind in the U.S. The virgin oils produced there are shipped to WRE Biofuels. For more information, visit WRE Feed & Mill.
