Our Mission Statement

“To collect waste vegetable oil from our partners in the food service industry using state-of-the-art systems and utilize it in the production of biodiesel, thus improving air quality and reducing the overall carbon footprint.”

Midwest Renewable Biofuels is an Iowa-based used cooking oil collection company that began as a family farm seeking to make our fuel while providing a service to surrounding communities.

What started as a single farm using waste vegetable oil to reduce our carbon footprint has grown into a recycling firm that partners with restaurants and food service establishments in all corners of the Midwest. While our business has changed, we remain committed to clean, quality service with a personal touch.

Letter From The President

Traditionally, most people think Biodiesel in Iowa comes from soybean oil. However, soybean oil costs are high since we use that product for food. Currently, soybean oil processing nearly demands government tax credits to break even.

As a society, we produce leftover oil from cooking, both vegetable and animal-based. These products, collected and processed correctly, can create a better, cleaner burning fuel than that which we are currently using from petroleum-based fuels.

Biodiesel reduces exhaust emissions, carbon monoxide, soot, and smoke. As a fuel, it has increased lubricating properties and can be blended with diesel to improve the poor lubricating properties of the new ultra-low sulfur diesel. Let alone, it is renewable! In producing biodiesel, we gather products that could clog our sewers, plug our drains, and increase our wastewater treatment costs.

It seems only natural that we should use waste products to produce better fuels! And we reduce our dependence on imported petroleum. What a simple solution!

It is more complicated than that; collection, variable quality oils, and refining properties make this environmental solution more difficult. But if we as a community do our part to gather our waste oils and not pour them down the drains or throw them in the trash, we will enjoy a cleaner, greener Iowa.

President, Midwest Renewable Biofuels
