A Biodiesel Workshop will be held on Wednesday, January 9, 2019, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Manor Conference Center, Capital Plaza Hotel, Topeka, Kansas. The event is open to all that are interested in making, blending, distributing, and using biodiesel.

Speakers from REG, MEG Corp, NBB, Emergent Green, and others will be presenting.
