rendering plant
Animal waste facility
A rendering plant is a facility that processes animal carcasses, slaughterhouse waste, and other animal byproducts into usable materials like tallow, grease, and protein meal for animal feed.
The work involves boiling down dead animals and scraps—producing notoriously foul odors that make these plants unwelcome neighbors: The smell from the rendering plant carried for miles.
