How to Make High Quality Biodiesel

GRAYDON BLAIR: My name is Graydon Blair from Utah Biodiesel Supply, and on behalf of Expert Village, I want to teach you now how to make really good biodiesel. If you look out on the market, you're going to find a lot of different types of equipment. The two big ones, I want to talk about though right now, are metal versus plastic. If you remember, to make good biodiesel we need a lot of heat. Typically, if you find metal processors, you're going to get better reaction simply because the heat is better. You also want to look for good mixing as well. Also, because we are dealing with a flammable substance, methanol, it's a little bit safer if you use metal tanks versus plastic tanks. Also, if you're heating within the tank, you don't want your tank to melt on you, so I kinda recommend metal tanks over plastic tanks. Do your research, look hard but look for the plastic, look for the metal, see which ones work the best for you. Again, calling it referrals, but my feeling is you can make better biodiesel with metal tanks.
