nbbBiodiesel supporters kicked off a yearlong celebration this week at the National Biodiesel Conference and Expo in Fort Worth, Texas, celebrating the National Biodiesel Board (NBB) 25th anniversary.

A NBB representative told attendees during the event, after noting that the U.S. went from zero to three billion gallons of biodiesel production in 25 years, that “we are at the tipping point, on the verge of greatness,” adding that “anything is possible,” in the future.

Information presented during the annual conference showed that in 2017, the U.S. biodiesel industry used more than six billion pounds of soybean oil and another six billion pounds of other fats and oils, creating demand for agricultural products and byproducts.
