The company Extracte Lur, integrated by Oleofat and other partners, acquired the biodiesel plant that Acciona had in Navarra to transform it into a biorefinery, and has signed a strategic agreement with an important oil company for the production of hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) and glycerine, which is already being produced since the beginning of 2019.
The project involves an investment of 2.5 million euros aimed at the adaptation of the existing facilities, which had been closed for six years due to the convulsions of the biodiesel market and the existing uncertainties about the future of automotive fuels, and their conversion into a modern biorefinery.
