Make your own Biodiesel Part 2

Anybody can make biodiesel. It’s easy, you can make it in your cooking area– and it’s BETTER than the petro-diesel fuel the big 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 utilized cooking oil it’s not only cheap but you’ll be recycling a problematic waste item. Most importantly is the GREAT feeling of flexibility, independence and empowerment it will give you. Here’s how to do it– whatever you need to know.

Straight grease fuel (SVO) systems can be a clean, effective and cost-effective alternative. Unlike biodiesel, with SVO you have to customize the engine. The best method is to fit a professional 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 change off, like any other cars and truck. 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 . You need to start the engine on ordinary petroleum diesel or biodiesel in one tank and then change to SVO in the other tank when the veg-oil is hot enough, and change back to petro- or biodiesel before you stop the engine, or you’ll coke up the injectors.

More information on straight grease systems in my blog site.

3. Biodiesel or SVO?

Biodiesel has some clear benefits over SVO: it operates 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 cold-weather homes than SVO (but not as great as petro-diesel– see Using biodiesel in winter season). Unlike SVO,

it’s backed by lots of long-lasting tests in many countries, consisting of countless miles on the road.

Biodiesel is a tidy, safe, ready-to-use, alternative fuel, whereas it’s reasonable to state that numerous SVO systems are still speculative and require more advancement.

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

But the big and rapidly growing around the world band of homebrewers do not mind– they make a supply every week or as soon as a month and quickly get used to it. Many have actually been doing it for many years.

Anyway you have to process SVO too, specifically WVO (waste grease, used, cooked), which many individuals with SVO systems use because it’s cheap or free for the taking. With WVO food particles and pollutants and water need to be eliminated, and it most likely must be deacidified too. Biodieselers state, “If I’m going to need to do all that I may as well make biodiesel rather.” But SVO types discount that– it’s much less processing than making biodiesel, they say. To each his own.
