TBI Refinery in Wilson around 2012
About Us – Triangle Biofuels Industries, Inc. (TBI) is a regional biodiesel refinery in the renewable energy industry. The company’s business is to recycle used cooking oil and other fats into renewable biodiesel for blending use in the petroleum diesel markets. The company owns and leases equipment and property in mid-North Carolina, strategically placed near the Selma Oil Terminals and major interstate and highway intersections leading to other states. The production refinery has a nameplate capacity of 5MGY and utilizes a hybrid semi-continous
batch reaction method for transesterification, yielding a consistent product with generally better cold-soak performance and combustion characteristics than their competitors. The company operates in the following markets: fleets, marine, agricultural, bulk blending, commercial and retail sales. TBI was established in 2005 with its current operations located in Wilson, NC started in 2008.
At TBI, we’re committed to making a clean, renewable fuel called biodiesel that is recycled from used cooking grease. We believe that biodiesel, unlike many other “alternative fuels”, is a drop-in solution to our dependency on foreign oil. Biodiesel is here now. It requires no engine modification, no new fueling infrastructure, can be blended in any ratio with diesel fuel, and used intermittently if desired. Just simply pour it in, and it works.
Biodiesel creates jobs, keeps money and natural resources here at home, and provides a cleaner burning alternative fuel that is produced right here in America.
We are the largest biodiesel producer in North Carolina.
