If I were to set up a biodiesel refining unit I would want fresh vegtable oil and I do not want to collect if from resturants. I want to buy at least 500 gallons at a shot to make it worthwhile. I want it domestically produced in the United States. Price and availability are an issue.

But if you are serious about an alternative fuel you need to check out saltwater as a fuel…
