This is a great video from the dude who hosts TRUCKS on Speed TV that shows you how to make your own bio-diesel http://making-biodiesel.org/
He uses one of these:
FuelMeister II
Personal Biodiesel Production System
CARS / TRUCKS / GENERATORS / TRACTORS / FURNACES
With a FuelMeister II you don't have to be a plumber or mechanic to make your own biodiesel. This is not a hobby kit but an easy to assemble and tested system built with quality materials. You get all the specialized equipment and accessories you need to start making biodiesel that same day. All you need to add is vegetable oil, methanol, lye, electricity and tap water. The whole setup fits comfortably in the corner of your garage. And because it's a "closed" system you won't have to pour or stir any liquids. A digital scale is included so you can accurately measure your own lye. The FuelMeister will turn even heavily used cooking oil into clean burning, biodegradable and smooth-running biodiesel. Whatever you own that runs on #2 diesel fuel you can power with the biodiesel you produce with your own FuelMeister II processor system.
"The FuelMeister from Renewal Fuels is by far the fastest, easiest and safest way for individuals to start making their own high quality biodiesel." Joshua Tickell, Author "From the Fryer to the Fuel Tank"
Sets up in minutes in a 30"X30" space
Can make 80 gallons per day
Supplies cost less than 70¢/gal.
1/2 hr. hands-on time per 40 gallon batch
Exclusive 100% draining conical tank
Modular add-on tank connections
Direct Catalyst Injection
Completely closed & fumeless
Continuous water washing
Solid-state pump timer/controller
SPECIFICATIONS: *
Biodiesel Output 2 batches of 40 gallons washed biodiesel per day
Mix Turnover Rate 330 gallons (6.9 batch volumes) per hour
Vegetable Oil Input 40 gallons for each 40 gallon batch of biodiesel
Methanol Input 8 gallons for each 40 gallon batch of biodiesel
Operator Time 1/2 hour per bach (typical)
Pump Electricals 120VAC, 60Hz, 5.5 amps
Tank Material Chemical grade medium density polyethylene
Tank Stands Welded steel frame with anchor holes pre-drilled
Plumbing Materials Chemical grade steel with steel/stainless ball valves
Processor Capacity 55 gallons (maximum)
Processor Size 62" high x 25" diameter
Shipping Weight Approx. 125 lbs. (shipped by UPS in 2 boxes)
Biodiesel Advantages
80% lower emissions than fossil diesel
Made mostly from waste vegetable oil
As biodegradable as table salt
Use it in vehicles, generators, furnaces
Can be used alone or with fossil diesel
Exhaust smells like a deep-fat fryer
Reduces dependency on foreign oil
Dramatically reduces diesel pollution
Engines run smoother, last longer
Zero diesel engine modification
