Seems they charge by their expenses in refining the materials, every load gets charged (my guess) for a full process ( startup, aquisition of chemicals, equipment, processing, manpower, refining, sales, shutdown, cleanup, disposal of wastes ), and unless you had a boxcar load, your return on a smaller batch might net you a $2 or $3 return.
Similar to needing a ride to the store, but instead of taking a taxi, getting a 747 instead (by the time they got that thing fired up, your pocket money would be gone ; )
