In this video, I’m going to give you an overview of how to make biodiesel fuel to use in your home or car. After you watch this video, you’ll have a better understanding of whether it is practical or sensible for you to try make biodiesel at home or not.

Now, most people think of vegetable oil when they hear the words biodiesel fuel. Tt’s true vegetables are used to manufacture biodiesel, but there’s a difference between commercially produced biodiesel fuel and a bottle of vegetable oil you grab from a grocery store shelf.

Commercially produced biodiesel will work in vehicles that are powered by a standard diesel engine. But to make regular vegetable oil work – or vegetable oil that is actually cooking oil cleaned and recycled from local restaurants, you’ll need to make some modifications to your vehicle’s engine. So unless you love to tinker or are a qualified diesel mechanic, it ‘s probably simpler to get biodiesel from a service station that sells it.

3The biggest challenge for those who want to make biodiesel at home will probably be collecting enough vegetable oil or cooking oil for it to be cost effective. Vegetable oil is also known as standard vegetable oil or SVO. Oil that has been used for cooking is called WVO (waste vegetable oil). Some restaurants would be happy to give you all the WVO they have. But you’ll still have to take your time to pick it up and transport it. So you’ll need to determine if any savings you’ll get are worth the time you’ll take to gather what you need.

Then there’s the time required to process and produce a liquid that will work in your engine. You can’t just dump pure vegetable oil or cooking oil into your vehicle’s fuel system. You need to blend it with other fuels and solvents. Otherwise, it won’t flow freely enough through fuel lines to get into the combustion chamber. SVO also has different chemical and combustion characteristics than traditional diesel fuel. Today’s cleaner, more efficient diesel engines may not tolerate home made biodiesel blends very well.

To make vegetable oil or cooking oil work in most diesel engines, you’ll need a lot of stuff…lye, methanol, certain solvents, plastic buckets, paint mixers, strainers and a big container to heat it all up. It can be hazardous to work with lye and methanol, especially around heat, so if you’re going to do it, be sure to wear eye protection, rubber gloves and a respirator.

So the answer to the question can you make biodiesel from vegetable oil or cooking is definitely yes. The answer to the question is it worth the time, expense and effort is one you’ll need to determine for yourself.

There are a number of commercial biodiesel processors can be built or bought that will help you make it at home in the simplest and most efficient way possible. And there also are a number of books available that tell you how to do it, step by step. You’ll find links to two of those books above.
