Congrats Leo!

We are excited to see Leo Budy has been named as a co-chair to help lead the Next Generation of Scientists for Biodiesel with the National Biodiesel Board.

Leo is a KU student and a member of the KU Biodiesel Initiative (University of Kansas) that is supported by the Commission and has a passion for biodiesel.

“When I got the first tour of the lab, I knew I had stumbled across something that I could really get excited about,” Leo says. “I volunteered in the lab over the course of the summer, and I got absolutely addicted. The more time I spent in the lab helping to clean, organize, and maintain the biodiesel production process, the more captivated I became.”

We have a big announcement to make ladies and gents! We are currently doing a study with KU on Wheels to see how a bus runs on our biodiesel. We have bus 308 that runs the 43 red route. Spread the word by taking pictures by the sign and tagging our page. Hope to see pictures flooding in soon :)

We are very excited to announce our new partnership with the KU Greek Community. We have teamed up with the different "house moms" to create a sustainable way for the fraternities and sororities to recycle their used cooking oil. AXO was the first house to participate, and soon thereafter many of the additional houses also joined our cause. On our first oil pickup, we collected just shy of 100 gallons of oil to convert into biodiesel.
