Animal Diesel at US Pumps in 2007
Thursday, August 9th, 2007
ConocoPhillips, one of the largest US oil companies, and Tyson Foods, the world’s largest meat produces, have recently announced that they plan to start adding animal
fat to the diesel sold by ConocoPhillips at pumps by the end of 2007. The fat, which would come from pigs, cows, and chickens, would be indistinguishable from regular
diesel, and chemically equivalent to diesel itself.
