Yeah, I'm kind of leaning towards a WVO setup.

I'd like to make biodiesel at sometime, but I've bought the book "from fryer to fuel tank" and I've learned a bit. I think that one thing that is a negative to biodiesel that is overlooked is that when using WVO, you are burning all of the fuel, but when using biodiesel, the glycerine and FFA are not burned but have to be disposed of. IMHO, you need to clean out the WVO before you make biodiesel anyway, so why not burn it and recover energy from the glycerine in the triglyerides.


Haven't decided yet though.
