New biodiesel plant built by Rossi Biofuel and MOL Group in Hungary

In Hungary, the new advanced biodiesel plant of Rossi Biofuel in Komárom was inaugurated, which will significantly increase the biofuel production volume in Hungary. The plant has 50,000 tons of new biodiesel capacity per year and an 85 percent greenhouse gas savings compared to conventional fuel.

With this investment, MOL Group and Envien Group launched a technology in Europe that can boost greenhouse gas savings by more than 85 percent.

The plant is the first in Europe to use the RepCat technology of the Austrian BDI-BioEnergy International GmbH, which is highly flexible in terms of raw materials: it also allows the processing of greasy wastes of different types and origins, such as used cooking oils, trap grease, animal fats or residues from vegetable oil production. Biodiesel produced in this way is one of the most climate-friendly fuels.
