Clearwater, Fla.-based Florida Biodiesel Inc. recently completed the sale of a B-60 biodiesel processor, made by 70centsagallon.com, to Oxford High School in Oxford, Miss. The biodiesel production equipment will be used to demonstrate green fuel technology on campus.
Florida Biodiesel says the B-60 biodiesel processor requires only one hour of assembly time and can produce 45-gallon batches of biodiesel.
“The students will process the oil they collect from the cafeteria into biodiesel fuel for use in campus vehicles,” said Victor Garlington, director of client services at 70CentsaGallon.com. “The B-60 is very user friendly and great for students to learn biodiesel basics.”
