Environmentally, using beef tallow diverts waste from landfills and lowers methane emissions. It also reduces reliance on crop-based oils, helping address land-use concerns. Economically, tallow is abundant and inexpensive, but requires energy for rendering and special handling due to its solid state at room temperature. The GlobeCore USB system mitigates these challenges with built-in heating and automated control, making it efficient for both centralized and decentralized biodiesel facilities. Regulations on animal byproducts and emissions should also be considered when scaling.
