Firm works on small-scale biodiesel production
The Country Today includes comments from Mark Daugherty, a member of RENEW’s board, in a story on small-scale biodiesel production:
Mark Daugherty, Great Lakes BioFuels chief technology officer, said a soybean grower would use 10 to 20 percent of his cropland to grow enough fuel to burn on the farm, depending on crop yields and fuel needs. He said it might make sense for farmers to work together and produce biodiesel at a local co-op, so the machinery could be of a larger scale and more automated.
