Biodiesel is made entirely from renewable resources such as soybeans, sunflowers, rapeseed and palm oil as well as waste vegetable oil. Biodiesel is made through a chemical process called transesterification whereby the glycerin is separated from the fat or vegetable oil.
Biodiesel is widely available today. There are many reasons biodiesel will benefit our planet and the energy issues we are starting to face. Biodiesel fuel is made from vegetable oil.
It can be purchased directly from biodiesel producers and marketers, petroleum distributors, or at a handful of public pumps throughout the nation. Even if there is an oil spill, the amount of harm will be negligible as compared to an oil spill from a normal source. In some manufactured products, they found a small amount of water in the fuel.
The challenge we face is to educate the public about the issues surrounding biofuels and what is good or bad. One of the best ways to learn how to make biodiesel fuel is to learn from someone who is already doing it and is familiar with the process and equipment.
