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...

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.,
