Calculations?

A Biodiesel Blog reader posted a comment, inquiring:
"I'm at the University of Florida and am trying to do prelim. research on biodiesel production. I got an email back from one of the dining hall directors telling me that they produce 750 lbs of 'waste grease' a month. How could I determine how much of a fuel yield would one get from that?"
If you know how to calculate this, please leave a comment - thanks!
