Used cooking oil in Dubai will soon be transformed into clean fuel, as part of a new environmental
initiative led by Dubai Municipality in collaboration with BiOD Technology FZCO.

The project aims to reduce pollution, ease pressure on the sewage infrastructure, and advance
Dubai’s transition to green energy. Under the agreement, used cooking oil (UCO), along with fats,
oils, and grease (FOG), will be collected from across the emirate and processed into B100 biodiesel
— a renewable, cleaner-burning alternative to traditional diesel.
