The FSSAI has requested all Food Safety Commissioners of all States and Union territories to
- ensure that all FBOs maintain the usage record and dispose of their Used Cooking Oil only to the authorised collection agencies or to aggregators of enrolled Biodiesel Manufacturers only.
conduct periodic inspections with a view to ensure that Biodiesel Manufacturers utilise the Used Cooking Oil for manufacture of Biodiesel only and the same does not re-enter into the food chain.

Why it will be applicable only for those who are using 50 lit or more per day .if someone used less than 50 lots it will not be suffered people . I think first of all introduce a STD books like drug regulatory bodies Indian pharmacopoeia. Materials are standardized by this book..If raw materials are STD. The RTC or RTE both will be almost standardized. It is possible only those who are selling the materials.because small and Street side hawkers are not able the maintain this.
