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 big oil companies sell you. Your diesel motor will run much better and last longer on your home-made fuel, and it's much cleaner-- better for the environment and much better for health.

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

Straight veggie oil fuel (SVO) systems can be a clean, efficient and cost-effective alternative. Unlike biodiesel, with SVO you have to modify the engine. The very best method is to fit an expert singletank SVO system with replacement injectors and glowplugs optimised for veg-oil, as well as fuel heating.

With the German Elsbett single-tank SVO system for example you can use petro-diesel, biodiesel or SVO, in any combination. Just launch and go, stop and switch off, like any other car. Journey to Forever's Toyota TownAce van uses an Elsbett single-tank system. More

There are likewise two-tank SVO systems which pre-heat the oil to make it thinner. You have to start the engine on regular petroleum diesel or biodiesel in one tank and after that 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 benefits over SVO: it operates in any diesel, without any conversion or modifications to the engine or the fuel system-- simply put it in and go. It likewise has better cold-weather properties than SVO (however not as good as petro-diesel-- see Using biodiesel in winter season). Unlike SVO,

it's backed by many long-lasting tests in numerous nations, including millions of miles on the road.

Biodiesel is a clean, safe, ready-to-use, alternative fuel, whereas it's reasonable to say that numerous SVO systems are still speculative and require additional development.

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 new oil or utilized oil (and upon where you live). And unlike SVO, it has actually to be processed initially.

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

Anyway you need to process SVO too, particularly WVO (waste grease, used, prepared), which lots of people with SVO systems use since it's cheap or totally free for the taking. With WVO food particles and pollutants and water must be gotten rid of, and it most likely should be deacidified too. Biodieselers say, "If I'm going to have to do all that I might also make biodiesel instead." But SVO types belittle that-- it's much less processing than making biodiesel, they state. To each his own.
