Anybody can make biodiesel. It's simple, you can make it in your kitchen area-- and it's BETTER than the petro-diesel fuel the huge oil companies offer you. Your diesel motor will run better and last longer on your home-made fuel, and it's much cleaner-- better for the environment and better for health.

If you make it from used cooking oil it's not only cheap however you'll be recycling a problematic waste item. Most importantly is the GREAT sensation of flexibility, self-reliance and empowerment it will provide you. Here's how to do it-- everything you require to know.

Straight grease fuel (SVO) systems can be a tidy, efficient and cost-effective choice. Unlike biodiesel, with SVO you have to modify the engine. The finest method is to fit a professional singletank SVO system with replacement injectors and glowplugs optimised for veg-oil, in addition to fuel heating.

With the German Elsbett single-tank SVO system for instance you can utilize petro-diesel, biodiesel or SVO, in any combination. Just start up and go, stop and change off, like any other automobile. Journey to Forever's Toyota TownAce van uses an Elsbett single-tank system. More

There are also two-tank SVO systems which pre-heat the oil to make it thinner. You need to start the engine on common petroleum diesel or biodiesel in one tank and then change to SVO in the other tank when the veg-oil is hot enough, and switch back to petro- or biodiesel before you stop the engine, or you'll coke up the injectors.

3. Biodiesel or SVO?

Biodiesel has some clear advantages over SVO: it works in any diesel, with no conversion or modifications to the engine or the fuel system-- simply put it in and go. It also has better than SVO (however not as excellent as petro-diesel-- see Using biodiesel in winter season). Unlike SVO,

it's backed by many long-lasting tests in lots of nations, consisting of millions of miles on the roadway.

Biodiesel is a clean, safe, ready-to-use, alternative fuel, whereas it's fair to state that lots of SVO systems are still experimental and need further advancement.

On the other hand, biodiesel can be more costly, depending just how much you make, what you make it from and whether you're comparing it with brand-new oil or used oil (and depending upon where you live). And unlike SVO, it has to be processed first.

But the large and quickly growing around the world band of homebrewers don't mind-- they make a supply weekly or as soon as a month and quickly get used to it. Many have actually been doing it for several years.

Anyway you have to process SVO too, particularly WVO (waste veggie oil, utilized, cooked), which lots of people with SVO systems use since it's cheap or complimentary for the taking. With WVO food particles and pollutants and water must be eliminated, and it most likely needs to be deacidified too. Biodieselers state, "If I'm going to have to do all that I might also make biodiesel rather." But SVO types discount that-- it's much less processing than making biodiesel, they state. To each his own.
