Fats and Proteins Research Foundation (FPRF)
The Fats and Proteins Research Foundation (FPRF) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to funding research that advances the utilization and development of rendered animal products. Since its founding in 1962, FPRF has supported more than 650 research projects aimed at improving the quality, safety, and sustainability of these products. The foundation operates independently of lobbying efforts, in compliance with 501(c) Illinois statutes.
In 2005, FPRF established the Animal Co-Products Research and Education Center (ACREC) at Clemson University in South Carolina. Its research spans a variety of sectors, including biofuels. Notably, studies on the combustion and emissions of animal fats have led to EPA approval for their use as fuel alternatives in steam production, highlighting the potential of rendered products in renewable energy solutions.
