Biosolids for Biodiesel Project Wins 2007 EPA Award

The Biosolids for Biodiesel project, a cooperative research project conducted by the University of Washington, King County and Natural Selection Farms, was awarded the 1st Place Research Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's 2007 National Clean Water Act Recognition program. The project studied targeted use of biosolids to fertilize canola for biodiesel production. This process reduces greenhouse gas production by both substituting biosolids for synthetic fertilizers and by producing a green fuel. The program has gone full scale with biosolids biodiesel being used to power King County vehicles.
