Be prepared to "dispose" of the chunks of fries, chicken, etc that come
in the bottom of the oil bin. They could be carefully burned for heat
to warm oil....

Thanks for the great input. The local Z Burger chain has a guy pick it up
every Wednesday but they haven't seen him in awhile. I wonder if more
frequent (2 or 3x weekly) pickups would be more appealing, although since
my consumption.is probably on the order of 10 gallons/week I would probably
not be able to keep up with their supplies.

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.,
