Used vegetable cooking oil (UCO) is a mixture of triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, and free fatty acids. UCO can be reused in a few different applications, such as soap making, lamp oil, animal feed and biodiesel. ABRAS is concentrated on supplying used cooking oil to biodiesel enterprises. The European Waste Catalogue (EWC) classifies them as Municipal Wastes (household waste and similar commercial, industrial and institutional wastes) including separately collected fractions, under the code 20 01 25 (edible oils and fats). UCO obtained from waste water treatment plants is also considered non‐hazardous materials with a different code: 19 08 09 (grease and oil mixture from oil/water separation containing edible oil and fats). It can be described by the following specifications:
