Biodiesel is bio-degradable, clean-burning, non-toxic, and works in any diesel engine without modifications. As the price of gas continues to rise and our reliance on it becomes greater a small group of people have begun making biodiesel fuel at home as a way to free them selves of the energy crunch that is looming on the horizon.
It is being suggested by many biodiesel advocates that excess or waste vegetable oil can be the best source of oil to produce this alternative fuel. A great many biodiesel producers great their raw material from restaurant grease dumpsters as most restaurants are only to happy to get rid of the stuff. The vegetable oil can be fresh or virgin oil made from soybeans, corn, mustard, flaxseed, and sunflower oil.
The process to make biodiesel is relatively easy too. Most of the diesel engines do not require any modification in order to use bio-diesel instead of petrodiesel. One of the unexpected benefits of biodiesel is its ability flush out and clean the internal parts of a diesel engine.
Most people who refine this alternative fuel are more then willing to share their knowledge because that's the best way to advertise its benefits. Follow the instructions closely and heed all the safety precautions before you begin to process your biodiesel.
