A professor from the University of Missouri has developed a process to make propylene glycol using the glycerin that's normally left behind as a waste product from the biodiesel production process.

On the other side of that reaction, you end up with a whole bunch of usable biodiesel and a small amount of glycerol as a byproduct. From there, biodiesel is mixed with conventional petroleum at ...

A byproduct of biodiesel production could soon yield another alternative fuel: hydrogen. The Linde Group will be building a demonstration plant later this year to turn glycerine into hydrogen.

News19 shows you a behind the scene look inside the biodiesel lab. Hear from the future chemists and engineers that run the ...
