Waste oil collector Atlantic Pacific LLC will relaunch its Midwest operations with a focus on Chicago, with three trucks and 8,500 gallons per day capacity.

Hindsale, Ill.-based holding company ID Global Corp. announced that a recent round of funding for Atlantic Pacific enabled it to begin moving the equipment necessary for relaunch. Things are moving along with [Atlantic Pacific] and we see a great opportunity to rekindle some old accounts that have already accepted our new pricing structure and get started right away, Sebastien DuFort, president and CEO of ID Global, said in a news release. The Chicagoland area is low hanging fruit for us as [ID Global] has a physical presence here and can oversee the relaunch.

Atlantic Pacific says it is currently operating with a renewable supply contract to the largest used oil rerefinery in volume for 2011-2012, and claims to have consistently been the rerefiners largest supplier of used lube oil feedstock.
