Biodiesel has faced a backlash in recent years, as critics charge the industry with razing land and pushing up food costs. But as its competitors struggle, one Hong Kong-based company is moving ahead with a US$165 million plant that turns recycled cooking oil into biodiesel, which it says could eventually power every diesel-powered vehicle in this smog-addled city.

由于批评人士指责生物柴油行业破坏土地、推高粮食价格，近年来该行业一直遭到抵制。但在竞争者陷入困境之际，一家香港公司却在推进一个规模1.65亿美元的工厂，该厂可以将回收的食用油变成生物柴油。公司说，该工厂最终有望为香港这个被雾霾笼罩的城市中所有的柴油车提供动力。

When the 18, 000-square-foot plant begins operating this month, it will be one of about a dozen globally of its kind, says ASB Biodiesel CEO Anthony Dixon. Controlled by majority shareholder Al Salam Bank-Bahrain, the plant will utilize the city's densely packed scale to collect used cooking oil in the region and from 4, 000 restaurants across town, more than doubling local biodiesel production capacity.

ASB生物柴油(ASB Biodiesel)首席执行长狄克逊(Anthony Dixon)说，这个面积18,000平方英尺（约合1,672平方米）的工厂本月投入运营，它将成为全球十多个此类工厂之一。该厂由大股东巴林的伊斯兰银行(Al Salam Bank-Bahrain)控股，它将利用香港的人口密集布局从该地区及全市4,000家餐馆收集废弃的食用油，这比当地生物柴油产能高出一倍以上。
