My brother is on a high school biodiesel "team" of sorts, where they're trying to take left over greases and such from local restaurants and turn it into Biodiesel. It's pretty neat. I think they're getting close to getting their methodology just right to produce good batches from these waste products. The thing that's always got me, though, is that they get no school funding, which sucks because, if it actually works, the school can power all sorts of their equipment with the stuff. Pretty slick though.
