The biofuel refinery is a production building that produces chemfuel from wood or non-hay raw food.
Acquisition
Constructing a biofuel refinery requires Biofuel Refining to be researched, as well as 150 Steel, 3 Components and 2,000 ticks (33.33 secs). It requires a minimum construction skill of 4.
Once constructed, it cannot be re-installed, it can only be deconstructed.
Summary
While the refinery is selected, click "Bills" then "Add Bill" to add an order to produce chemfuel:
- Make chemfuel from wood: Turns
70 wood logs, worth 84 into 
35 chemfuel, worth 80.5. Takes 2,000 ticks (33.33 secs) of work. - Make chemfuel from raw food: Turns 3.5 nutrition worth of food ingredients into 35 chemfuel, worth 80.5. Takes 2,500 ticks (41.67 secs) of work.

Since chemfuel powered generators use only 4.5 chemfuel per day, it is very easy to achieve power from a closed system. A farm can easily fuel its own Sunlamps and still provide a surplus of food.
Both human meat and insect meat can be used at the refinery with no penalties. An infestation can lead to a massive supply of fuel, for instance.
Version history
- Before Beta 19, it used to be simply called the Refinery, and meals could be used as organic ingredients.
