Project Overview
System Overview
The BioDOME (Bioten Digital Oil Monitoring and Enforcement) Project is a cloud-based software and web platform developed for Bioten Energy Corporation. It enables real-time monitoring, tracking, and enforcement of used cooking oil (UCO) and grease trap waste (GTW) collection across households, restaurants, LGUs, and corporate partners. The system integrates mobile applications and a public-facing website with advanced cybersecurity, gamification, and compliance features to promote sustainable biodiesel conversion.
