Cambodia
In Cambodia, the biodiesel industry was founded with the establishment of Biodiesel Cambodia. Biodiesel Cambodia worked on different grass-roots projects, developing models that produced biodiesel from both waste cooking oil and from the oil found within the seed of the local, wild growing, Jatropha Curcas plant. Biodiesel Cambodia has been actively promoting biodiesel use and the cultivation of Jatropha as a biodiesel feedstock crop. The company established the first Jatropha-biodiesel refinery in Phnom Penh, where it produced B100 biodiesel fuel which was used to run the British Embassy's fleet of diesel vehicles with excellent results.
Elsewhere in Cambodia, there is a refinery in Sihanoukville belonging to the charitable organization Planet Biodiesel Outreach Cambodia. They are producing 1,000 liters per month and selling it in Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville to help raise funds for their charity. They run a school for impoverished Cambodian children and provide food, clothing, education, school supplies and transportation free of charge. They run their school bus on 100% biodiesel that is sustainably produced from waste vegetable oil.
