Biodiesel can be used in place of furnace oil but it needs burner

I'm probably wrong, but you may wish to double check and make sure that
the nut oil you are getting is not

First, you would need to find to incorporate an emuslifying agent to get the
glycerol to mix with the oil.
Second, you would also be adding a water fraction unless you distilled it
out first. (The presumption is being made that you are speaking of
