The chemicals are easy, before you do anything stockpile 100 gallons (2x 55 gallon drums) of the oil to prove that there are lots of sources and to prove to yourself that its something you want to go through on a consistent basis.
I think you'll find your sources of fat are MUCH more limited than you previously though. Unlike what the bio-digester folks usually tell you restaurants don't usually have to pay to get rid of their fryer oil... -Curt Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2011 13:59:34 -0400 From: andrew strasfogel <astrasfo...@gmail.com> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: [MBZ] Stop me before I buy a Biobuddy Message-ID: <CAC35L=tQbUeALWYynj-68aYvP1rDoswzk27t+xUohyFbADrf=q...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 We own three W123 turbodiesels so this is very tempting. Cost is about $1700 + $450 more for the "dry washing" feature. We have lots of restaurants that probably would be happy to get rid of their fryer grease; the main snag might be the cost and ease of obtaining NAOH (caustic soda). I also wonder how much lye and water is consumed per batch, and what the brew would do to our fuel lines., _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
