Hanoi, November 28, 2024 – Eco Oil Vietnam proudly announces the launch of Vietnam’s first-ever automatic used cooking oil (UCO) collection machine, marking a major step forward in applying cutting-edge technology to accelerate the circular economy and build a sustainable green future for communities.

Eco Oil Integrates Flow Metric Technology and AI to Optimize UCO Collection

Combining Flow Metric technology with artificial intelligence (AI), Eco Oil’s new collection system revolutionizes the process of used cooking oil management by maximizing transparency, efficiency, and ease of use. Key features of the machine include:

• Real-time monitoring via mobile app, allowing residents and businesses to conveniently track their oil waste.

• Data security and oil quality assurance to ensure responsible and verified recycling.

• User-friendly interface, accessible for all ages and community members.

These machines are being deployed across residential complexes, restaurant chains, and industrial kitchens, helping reduce operational costs while generating value from waste and meeting ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) sustainability criteria.

Eco Oil Aligns with Vietnam’s Sustainability Goals

The initiative is a collaborative effort between Eco Oil, Vinhomes, ReFeed, the Ministry of Environment of South Korea, and other partners—demonstrating a strong commitment to environmental protection and source-based waste sorting in alignment with Vietnam’s Environmental Protection Law.

Unlocking the Value of a Hidden Resource

When handled properly, used cooking oil is more than waste—it is a resource. UCO can be recycled into high-value products such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), a key component in helping the aviation sector reduce carbon emissions and contributing to Vietnam’s Net Zero ambitions.

Voices from the Launch Event

Mr. You Jeonghwan, CEO and Co-founder of Eco Oil:
“We are proud to pioneer smart oil collection and recycling technologies in Vietnam, and to turn sustainability into a daily practice through innovation.”

Ms. Tạ Thị Thanh Huyền, Deputy CEO of Vinhomes:
“We believe Eco Oil’s collection system will not only reduce waste but also foster renewable energy development—delivering lasting value to the community.”

Raising Environmental Awareness Through Education

In parallel with the machine launch, Eco Oil, in collaboration with UNDP, has initiated practical learning sessions at Vinschool, where students are taught how to properly collect and recycle used cooking oil. These educational programs empower the younger generation to take an active role in environmental stewardship.
