DACC Biotechnology students are getting hands-on experience in renewable energy production through an engaging biodiesel project led by Biotechnology instructor, Tom Dyer. Featured in a recent Ohio AgNet video interview, Mr. Dyer takes us inside his classroom to see how students are creating biodiesel from soy and corn oils—a process that not only teaches valuable lab skills but also sparks excitement for potential careers in agriculture and biosciences.
Mr. Dyer’s unique approach and his willingness to customize resources from GrowNextGen, allow his students to gain skills beyond a typical classroom lesson. Watch the full video below to see how Tom Dyer and his students are fueling both knowledge and the future of renewable energy.
