Coffee Ground Biodiesel

A way to make biofuel out of used coffee grounds sounds great, until you see what they’d have to charge in order to make a decent profit:

After taking out operating costs, and assuming a sale value of $4.50/gallon of biodiesel and $225/ton of fuel pellets, that amount equals just over $8 million of profits per year

In other words, you’d be lucky to break even.
