World Energy BIOX Biofuels commissions 90 million gallon biodiesel plant in Houston

In Texas, BIOX Corporation announced that World Energy BIOX Biofuels LLC, a 50/50 joint venture between World Energy and BIOX, has completed the commissioning of its 90 million gallon nameplate capacity biodiesel production facility in Houston, Texas. The facility started operating at full capacity in December 2016.

The Houston facility operates two equal-sized production trains that combine to provide a nameplate capacity of 90 million gallons. It uses crude degummed grade vegetable oils as its biodiesel feedstock. WEBB acquired the facility in June 2016 from Kinder Morgan. It is located within the Kinder Morgan Liquids terminal, a major diesel distribution hub in the southern U.S. market. This location provides WEBB’s biodiesel facility with immediate access to a deep-water port, rail, truck and pipeline providing distribution to all major U.S. markets.
