anybody interested... i generate about 50 gals a week of wvo..... would be interested in going in with someonte to buy a production unit...

i only want to run a 50/50 mix which mean it's more than enough for me and someone else....

found a nice setup for about a grand plus its about a dollar per gallon plus the waste oil to produce....

I've been looking at getting a diesel as my next truck but I'm gonna try and get 25k more out of my current truck. Maybe by the end of the summer I will be ready. If that happens I'll let you know.

Do you plan on converting the WVO to Biodiesel, or just filtering it?

good answer...

I'm definately interested in getting some B100, but would only need around 5 gallons a week...on occasion, I may need more. I only need enough to make B2-B5 in my F250 and Big Truck.

i figure after filtering/processing i should net about 20-30 gallons a week of good clean bio....which is about 3 times what i need or really want to run....

i've ran b99 for about a year in 2008-09....mixed 30-40 percent with dino diesel at times probably closer to 80-90 percent mix... used to buy it over at fox music....

be ready to change your filter within 2-3 weeks it really does clean your system that quickly....

mileage stayed the same...but black smoke almost completely disappeared within 2 months...

i never noticed the fry smell with b99 mixed...i'm not sure how prolific it will be with processed wvo....

i found a guy in charlotte selling his processing system for 500 so i think i'm gonna moved forward...it appears to be similiar to most of the units i've looked at new for around 1900...plus he's got a seperate warming and settling tank with it.

projected diesel prices around 4.25 by beginning of next year so every little bit helps...especially when i already have a supply
