• The BioBus initiative will recycle waste oil from ISU’s dining facilities into fuel

    All the waste oil that has been flowing out of the ISU’s (Iowa State University) campus dining facilities will finally be put to use, thanks to all the efforts taken by the ISU BioBus, an entrepreneurial student initiative with o David Correll, a Ph.D. student in ISU’s College of Business and co-founder and president steering. Students who’re part of the BioBus initiative are installing their new processor in their Biorenewables Research Laboratory headquarters over the next couple of weeks that will produce a supply of fuel. The fuel will then be used to breathe life into the CyRide bus. Financially assisted by a grant from the College of Business, and a Coleman Entrepreneurial Fellow grant, the BioBus has 20 active members working with green initiatives.


    The waste is finally flowing the right way, and the initiative plans to spread out farther too and probably to all of the ISU dining facilities and the Union Drive Marketplace too.
