Overview    

Biodiesel@MIT is a group of MIT students, faculty, and staff whose goal is to install a biodiesel processor on the MIT campus as part of the MIT Energy Initiative. The processor would convert waste vegetable oil from campus dining facilities into biodiesel to be mixed with regular diesel fuel and used in the institute's diesel-powered Tech Shuttles. We estimate that the biodiesel could be used to replace 5,000 gallons of year with potential for expansion.
