FutureFuel began the restart of its biodiesel plant this week after two delays.
The chemicals and biofuels manufacturer said Wednesday other processes at the facility ramped up in early March.
It started conducting scheduled annual maintenance and turnaround of its biodiesel plant in Batesville, Ark., in December 2024. That proved to be more extensive than expected. The turnaround efforts were twice delayed, in part due to severe weather in January. FutureFuel said in February biodiesel production wouldn't start until the end of March at the earliest.
