PETRONAS is running an initiative in collaboration with the Ministry of Plantation and Commodities to promote the recycling of used cooking oil.

"By simply dropping off your used cooking oil at participating PETRONAS stations, you are not just decluttering your kitchen, you are helping to protect our waterways from pollution, promote circular economy, and support the imminent production of Malaysia's biofuels," stated the company.

Instead of pouring it down the sink, which can harm the environment by clogging drains, polluting water, and harming wildlife, donate it to a better cause

What happens to the used cooking oil?

PETRONAS is working towards producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) partly from used cooking oil. And yes, that means fuel for planes!

This can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the aviation sector.
