Скачать или смотреть Making Biodiesel from Cooking Oil

In this video I demonstrate how to make any type of cooking oil into pure biodiesel, which is a sustainable eco-friendly alternative to traditional diesel fuel.This was my first attempt at this procedure, and I went in blind/without a procedure. To make things easier on myself I used fairly pure extra-virgin olive oil I had lying around, but now that I've got a good grasp on the process I may try this again at a much larger scale using spent/dirty cooking oil.
I feel that could be a super satisfying process, just let me know in the comments if that's something you'd like to see.

NOTE: I've been informed by a few of you in the comments who happen to have more specialized knowledge on fuels/engines, and were kind enough to share your insight, that biodiesel is NOT interchangeable with petroleum diesel in modern engines.
Apparently older (well-built) engines will handle biodiesel just fine, but this stuff is not recommended in modern diesel engines.
I am happy to see there is some interest in this type of content though, so I do now plan to try some other biofuels that are more compatible with modern engines. This video felt like a good place to start though given the ease of the synthesis.
