Interested in making bio diesel!!!

L6ctdx · 10-27-2009, 01:42 AM

I have plenty of space to have my own bio diesel set up but i'm pretty low on funding for this kind of project. What is the least costly way to make it happen? What kind of set ups do you guys have? any PM's and pictures would be great thanks!

appleseed processor only simpler. all you need is a way to pump from the bottom of the 55 gal drum back to the top. you can get a blue pump from harbor freight. plumbing fittings from home depot. probably less than $100, if you can weld yourself.

google: appleseed biodiesel

they sometimes make it more complicated than it is, pour in all ingredients, then pump from bottom to top for a couple hours. then let settle, drain until only bio comes out no glycerin. GOOD LUCK! way easier than it sounds

basicly you need one main tank and one smaller tank to make the methoxide in and a way to pump/recirculate (sp) and heat it.

more to it but thats a quick answer

like said check out appleseed or search craigslist many ppl r getting rid of their stuff.
