Biodiesel is on the rise, not only in the US, where 1999 500.000 gallons of Biodiesel were sold and it is predicted that by 2010 one to two billion gallons of Biodiesel are produced.

The reasons for considering making Biodiesel at home is that you can turn this waste oil into running your machines.

But this makes only sense if you have a supplier of cheap oil like vegetable oil from fast food Restaurants.

Making Biodiesel at home is done by using Processors, often using a Biodiesel Centrifuge

If you make your Biodiesel or not, you should consider using it since its exhausts are much more non-toxic and it has up to 0% Carbon Footprint - depending on the grade.

There is Biodiesel 20, 50 and 100, meaning that the fuel is containing 100% bio and 0% petroleum diesel.

Biodiesel is a much cleaner and more healthy alternative to petroleum diesel and can be used with normal diesel vehicles. The best information source for Biodiesel is to be found at the US National Biodiesel Board NBB

And with reaching peak oil - oil will get more and more expensive daily - is one easy step to become more independent - as long as you find a supplier of free or cheap waste oil.

A good way to start is to check out different processors from different suppliers and also on making biodiesel at home manuals.

The website instructables.com gives DIY instructions. I would be very careful though, just when writing this a processor or diesel tank exploded in the US. This is for Pros only.
