According to bio-bean, the average Londoner drinks 2.3 cups of coffee a day, translating to over 200,000 tonnes of waste a year.
The company takes some of these used coffee grounds from high street chains and factories, drying and processing them before oil can be extracted. This is later processed into a blended B20 biofuel, which simply refers to biofuel which is mixed with petroleum diesel.
Buses can run on the fuel without any need for modification.

"Thousands of litres of coffee-derived B20 biodiesel will help power London buses for the first time.”
