Biodiesel

Biodiesel is a renewable, clean-burning diesel replacement that is reducing U.S. dependence on foreign petroleum, creating jobs and improving the environment.  It is meant to be used in standard diesel engines and is thus distinct from the vegetable and waste oils used to fuel converted diesel engines. Biodiesel can be used alone, or blended with petrodiesel in any proportions. Biodiesel can also be used as a low carbon alternative to heating oil.  Four things are needed to make biodiesel which include waste vegetable oil, household lye, methanol, and water.  Biodiesel creates new green jobs and helps out the environment.  Biodiesel is available nationwide. It can be purchased directly from biodiesel producers and marketers.

This is the website that I used to get information regarding Biodiesel:
