Late last week Biodiesel Magazine’s website got a new look, improved functions and an enhanced online biodiesel plant map. While we flipped the switch last week, the new website is a culmination of months and months of work by many individuals.
The new website features a fresh, new look, and enhanced toolbars for geographical (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Africa & the Middle East) and industry-topical (Business, Policy, Feedstock, Production, Distribution, Quality and Use) searches.
The new online map not only features updated content, but it also allows for a bird’s-eye view of biodiesel plants across the U.S. and Canada. The plant list function allows you to choose plants existing or under construction from the U.S. and Canada separately.

For their efforts, I would like to thank BBI International Art Director, Jaci Satterlund; BBI Program and Data Manager Kolby Hoagland; BBI’s executive team and many others. And special thanks go out to Sue Conroe, BBI’s speaker logistics coordinator, for all of her hard work on the biodiesel plant calls and data entry during the vetting process.
