Kitchen waste oil will be filtered and reused before being donated to biodiesel-fuel depots. Even the leftover food on students' plates will do double-duty. Food scraps and biodegradable napkins will be washed into a contraption called the pulper, where they will get, well, pulped. The resulting slurry will be pumped to the first-floor extractor, in which it is dehydrated and turned into a material resembling sawdust. The remaining "food dust" is then dumped into...
