Remember how oil prices soared immediately after the Hurricane Katrina, now is a good time for alternative fuel. Not only can the biodiesel be utilized as fuel on its own, it can be interfused with the standard diesel in any ratio.
You will need to check with the manufacturer of your engine to make sure that it will run on biodiesel with out any problems. Used vegetable oils along with sewage are all being used to produce biodiesel these days. Initially you should manufacture little amount of oil so that when you become acquainted with the process, you can make biodiesel at home at a larger scale.
It can be readily used in diesel engine vehicles. The equipment required for the entire process is simple and can be accessed at any local store or even from your garage. The vegetable oil has to pass a simple chemical process that is called transesterification in order to become biodiesel.
The benefit of creating a fuel source from waste products is such that the world as a whole is a better place. Diesel engines were in fact originally designed in the early 1900's to run on biodiesel made from oil seed crops and not to run on petroleum-based diesel.
