San Francisco received a $1,000,000 grant from the California Energy Commission to build a pilot plant that will convert used restaurant grease into biodiesel.

The plant will be built on San Francisco Public Utility Commission’s Oceanside Sewage Treatment Plant, and will be able to use “brown grease,” which is that really dirty low-grade grease, of which the city has more than 2.5 million gallons. “Yellow grease” is the cleaner, easier to convert grease, which is more commonly used to transform into biodiesel.
