Biofuels Technology Club
Environmental/Sustainability·Research·Engineering
BTC collects waste cooking oil from UC Berkeley dining halls and converts it into biodiesel fuel for campus vehicles. Members work hands-on in the Incubator Lab and operate a 50-gallon reactor at the Richmond Field Station. The club emphasizes student-driven research and experimentation, building a closed-loop, zero-waste energy system while fostering a collaborative community around green energy and sustainability.
