How Mafuta Sasa is turning waste cooking oil into clean-burning biodiesel in East Africa

In Tanzania, an entrepreneur turns waste cooking oil into an alternative to diesel fuel and (as a bonus) liquid soap.

Michael Mwakilasa, Manager of Mafuta Sasa Ltd. based in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, stands by barrels of waste vegetable oil (WVO) collected from local hotels, restaurants, and street carts. Previously, Mwakilasa distributed merchandise on tour with Janet Jackson, NSync, and countless other American pop stars; authored a children's book on Julius Nyerere, Tanzania's founding father; and worked for several years at a New York City law firm.
