Refining vegetable oil into a biodegradable diesel-engine fuel is one of the latest trends in alternative energy, and Extreme Green Technology Inc. has slid right into the market.
The Corona-based company is one of the state's newest fully licensed and operational biodiesel production and distribution facilities.
Extreme Green Technology Inc., also known as Extreme Biodiesel, primarily uses waste vegetable oil to create a cleaner-burning form of fuel that can be used in almost any diesel engine without modification.
The company finalized all the permitting in January, says Rick Carter, chief financial officer for Extreme Biodiesel. "Within the week we'll be up to manufacture 2,000 gallons (of biodiesel fuel) a day and then build it up to 4,000 gallons a day."
"Our goal over the next six months is to get to 6,000 gallons a day," President Joe Spadafore says.
