How to make biodiesel at home

[jimmyaz101]

I live in Phoenix also and would very much appreciate seeing your operation. I am intriqued and want to find out all the info I can on this. I don't want to be a pest but would enjoy getting into a group enviroment obout bio diesel. I have access to frying and cooking oil from a grocery chain in phx. Thank you for your time

[TheSportsbot]

wow that was cool.  i wonder how much all that equipment would cost if you dont make it.

[Bestundesun]

how long can I store the bio-diesel

[MrMicraphone]

I see 6 Exon employees watched this vid ..

[charronfamilyconnect]

How much per gallon does this cost in total after considering filtering, processing, transportation and acquisition costs plus the cost of hydro to break this down into reusable fuel? Is it really cheaper than regular fuel which is only about $4.00 per gallon or is this only about environmental savings? Thanks for the video!

[aueinanaique]

can you tell me where can i buy those tanks so i can build my small station.

Thanks for the up!!! Very good.

[METALMAN4Wii]

@aueinanaique Google it because she doesn't know she's just fliming it this guy is probably her neighbor....?

[PNDUX1]

I live in Phoenix, How can I contact you?  I have numerous questions.

[demosthenesize]

How did you learn to make this system? Can you recommend a good resource (book, website?)

[cmpremlap]

@demosthenesize if you are still looking I found this eariler today "From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank" by Joshua Tickell 

[demosthenesize]

@cmpremlap Thanks for the info!

[passout18]

You sound so interested. HaHa

[changomonster]

I have made many batches of bio-diesel and i would like to know if you know a practical way to test rather or not i have real "bio-diesel" . Thank you

[agnoses]

Very good video. Just wanted to mention that the Methanol should only be handled in a fume hood or with a respirator in an open environment as in the video. Methanol requires special gloves also to handle due to the small size of the molecule. It causes blindness with repeated exposure by way of skin contact or brreathing and a few other bad physical effects. 

[Chemmmn]

What is the name of that company? I can't make it out...

[donsjuand]

The energy crisis originates from choosing self important values over that of humanity at large. Oil companies, car manufacturers, and anything in corporate america or elsewhere can and has, quite successfully convinced people that they need things they simply do not. We must first question our own values and ask why they are more important than humanity at large. Educate yourselves for the greater of humanity. Sustainability is crucial for LIFE.

i love your technology

[loltehinternet]

lots of information, awesome

[luminox03]

that is great..thank you for that video. most of the things you used looked like everyday things that may normally be discarded as waste. so really cool and a great way to help out with the problems we are facing with fossil fuels.

[pakorro1010]

I've produced Biodiesel Too, if you want to know how i've maked it, please visit my channel here in youtube............Thank´s

[circusboy90210]

hey back to that whole soap thing??? how much ssoap would 250 gallons of fryer vat grease create?

[yz80477]

where are you from? you don't have to be spific im trying to find someone to help me make it for my self im 17 and ive always been interested in it

[datzfast]

the only thing heat will do in this process is speed up the reaction. if you need 200 gallons a month make 200 gallons and take a month to make it. with no heat.

ok, i have never made any at all, so next time i am at the lumber yard i will buy some methanol, the sodium hydroxide i can alreay have drano. or oven cleaner i will do the test.

[hiperf2007]

Also, if you mix 5% prewash water before you shut the pump off, the glyc will settle in 1 hour, you don't have to wait 24 hours.

[hiperf2007]

Heat it up to around 140 degrees. Much fast reaction.

[circusboy90210]

what would 140 degreees F do to a 275 plastic ibc container

[HarryT9]

why did you remove the top heating element from the water heater???

[awol09]

you usually dont fill the entire tank with oil, because 20% of the volume will be added (methanol). this means that the upper heating element will just burn out

[DaBossFather]

get your self one of those metal drums use to fill the vegetable oil by the bulk open it up and place a fish tank water heater at the bottom, it will heat the oil to 120 to 130 degrees F, saving you the cost of a expensive water heater. however you'll will have to convert the metal drum when it comes to the pumps and circulation, this requires plumber skill, if you know a plumber locally find out how much will it cost to make the adjustments. Or learn to do it yourself.

[bernydaman]

Me and my father are trying to learn how to make it were do you buy these products?

[datzfast]

its great that you and your father are working together. you have a computer with Internet access. the fact that you asked such a question tells me you are not ready to do this. use the greatest tool

in your home to answer every question you have. you computer.

[worryfreewebca]

Could you use all that sun available to heat the oil instead of electricity?

[i8badfish]

Good question. I'm sure the answer is yes but I'm just the girl taping, not the biodiesel expert. Sorry.

[postmen321]

you have a cute laugh :-)

[Aceassassin99]

go out and meet a girl stop tryin to flirt wit people on the internet lol

[worryfreewebca]

@i8badfish could you get a video of Tom running his car on biodiesel?

[jordansezify]

@worryfreewebca Sorry-- moved out of town! :(

[sweetmystique32]

i don't see why not - you're referring to solar panels right?

[xcrazymagez]

solar panel is good at collecting energy not releasing a huge amount at a short period of time.

[FIGJAM276]

@worryfreewebca if you mean by heating it through direct sunlight then i dont think so. he mentionedd that it would heat it to between 130-140°F. how hot does it get where you live?

if instead you mean indirectly heating it through an element running on solar power then you might be onto a winner :)

[worryfreewebca]

@FIGJAM276 I'm in Ontario Canada, Yes solar power would be a good thing

But I was wondering by looking at the video he seems to be in a dry place, plenty of dirt no grass, wood on the beams shows no rot, unlike a summer here and my deck, and the sky is quite clear, so I thought using black paint on a water heater and let it absorb sun light for heat and save on electricty costs, I just was not that clear in my post.

Great set up though

[hipstarchild]

@worryfreewebca

That would be smart.

[mk3stargazer]

interesting but a lot of time messing with chemicals and washing etc, an easier way is to run the vehicle on WVO and mix in a % of white spirit,splish splash job done....
