Atlantic Bio Fuels is looking for a MUN student for research. THE PROJECT There is a requirement for research into many aspects of this issue on a provincial level. For example, understanding the current uses of vegetable oils is essential, such as how much is being used, where it is being used and by whom. Also, research is needed on what is done with the oil once it is used: Are there pickup services? Is it dropped off at landfills Does it go somewhere else? Mr. Lewis is also interested in research on the current costs of disposal, and whether people would be interested in a waste oil recycling program with a central dropoff location. Another important question is whether institutions, establishments, companies or individuals in the province would be interested in using biofuels. Mr. Lewis hopes that Memorial researchers can tackle these questions, and perhaps the Harris Centre can help them do so. The Harris CentreMMSB Waste Management Applied Research Fund will be accepting applications later this winter.
