Gujarat chief minister launches UCO collection app

In India, Gujarat Chief Minister Vijaybhai Rupani expressed determination to reduce the country’s crude oil bill by generating cheaper biodiesel from used cooking oil. Rupani stated that the RUCO (Reused of Cooking Oil Software Biodiesel Association of India) is collecting the used cooking oil from the traders to generate biodiesel from it. At the initial stage, the used cooking oil will be collected by a mobile van.

On the occasion, RUCO and FDCA had signed a MoU in the presence of Rupani. The Chief Minister had also launched an application of RUCO, which on very first day had attracted requests to collect 47,146 liters of used cooking oil from the oil traders.
