Inside, you'll find step-by-step instructions accompanied by helpful illustrations for such projects as building and properly using a homemade biodiesel reactor, which enables you to drive you car on vegetable oil purchased at a fraction of the price of gas or even on second-hand oil obtained from restaurants free of charge. Run Your Diesel Vehicle on Biofuels also includes a list of international parts suppliers and various manufacturers' warranty statuses regarding vehicles converted to biodiesel. Projects include: Collecting waste oil Building a waste-oil processor Creating biodiesel fuel Converting your car to professional standards Constructing heat exchangers Run Your Diesel Vehicle on Biofuels covers: ¿ History and functions of the diesel engine ¿ Benefits of biofuel ¿ Where to obtain raw ingredients ¿ Theory of fuel conversion ¿ Existing conversion kits o Blends, emulsions, and thinners ¿ Processing and discarding waste oil ¿ Laws and regulations ¿ Green retail o Health and safety ¿ Limitations of environmental benefits
