This expansion project will double the facility’s capacity to 400,000 gallons of GDiesel per day and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2012.
The company said GDiesel has been designated as an alternative diesel fuel by Nevada under NAC 486A.140, and is exclusively used by several city and county fleets in the state under this legislation.
Phase 3 and 4 represent the second expansion project since the refinery opened in 2010 with a 100,000 gallon per day capacity.
ARC embarked on the Phase 2 expansion in October 2010 and this project doubled the facility’s capacity to 200,000 gallons per day.
ARC also said that it is currently in the permitting stage for a second refinery in the Las Vegas area.
