Hello Sam
Hi John,
The Low Impact Living Initiative (see http://www.lowimpact.org.uk
for their site) has recently published a book called "How to Make
Biodiesel" which I received about two weeks ago (you can order it
from their website for £8.95). As well as procedures, equipment
lists etc, it also provides long lists of UK suppliers of all the
necessary ingredients and kit,
Now why don't they just put that on their website?
Actually they seem to have got a lot of their material from the
Journey to Forever site anyway, they wrote to me about it a couple of
times, asking me questions: "I must start by congratulatiing you on
producing THE most comprehensive biodiesel / liquid biofuel website
in the world." LOL!
But we wouldn't let them put Mike Pelly's page and so on in their
book and sell it, as they wanted to do on the grounds that they're a
not-for-profit environmental organisation. I told them: "We are also
a not-for-profit and involved in education work, and it costs us a
lot more than nothing to provide the material free-of-charge at our
website. If you want to offer it on your website, you can do the
same, free-of-charge, with a link to us as above, or just provide the
link."
I'm sorry they didn't do that, it would have been more useful. At
£120 and up their courses aren't exactly cheap.
and goes into considerations for setting up a commercial biodiesel
operation in the UK. Not much use to me, as I live in the
Netherlands, but my girlfriend and I will be going on their weekend
biodiesel course from 22nd-24th July at their site North West of
London. See you there?
Good luck with it, I hope it goes well.
Best wishes

I live in the UK and want to start making my own biodiesel. The
recipes I've seen generally come from the US and contain products
that I cant find over in the UK. Does anybody know where to get
the UK alternatives from? I'd be glad of the recipe and any tips
etc to start me on my project.
Thanks
John
