- Description
- Biodiesel Industries of Greater Dallas Fort Worth, LLC, an affiliate in Denton, TX, has had a partnership with the City of Denton (City), TX since June 2004 to utilize landfill gas. The landfill gas recovered from a closed portion of the City landfill provides the fuel to run a 30-HP boiler. This boiler provides processed hot water to their plant where the hot water drives the chemical process that converts renewable feedstock, vegetable oils, and animal fats to biodiesel. The plant came online in March 2005 and has been successfully producing biodiesel since that time. The City is utilizing the fuel to power their landfill heavy equipment and collection vehicles. Excess capacity is sold to customers in the metropolitan area.
