Bio-diesel fuel is generally made from vegetable oil, such as soybean, peanut, or canola oil, and can be used either by itself or in combination with regular diesel to run diesel cars, trucks and buses. Biodiesel is a well-liked energy option with the foremost oil companies.
Biofuel is also bio-degradable so a biofuel spill is not the environmental crisis that an oil spill would be. Biodiesel processing is a type of refining and high temperatures are involved so you need to be careful to avoid the risk of serious burns. It was first created when scientists started doing research into the possibility of using corn and soybean oils in the production of an alternative fuel source.
The regular diesel has components such as sulfur and aromatics. Initially you should manufacture little amount of oil so that when you become acquainted with the process, you can make biodiesel at home at a larger scale. Producing biodiesel from animal fats may not be feasible enough to replace petrodiesel just yet because of its limited supply.
Diesel engines were in fact originally designed in the early 1900's to run on biodiesel made from oil seed crops and not to run on petroleum-based diesel. Biodiesel is the best greenhouse gas mitigation strategy for today.
