<br>Anybody can make [biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html). It's easy, you can make it in your kitchen-- and it's BETTER than the petro-diesel fuel the huge oil companies offer you. Your diesel motor will run much better and last longer on your home-made fuel, and it's much cleaner-- better for the environment and much better for health.<br>
<br>If you make it from used cooking oil it's not just cheap but you'll be a frustrating waste item. Best of all is the GREAT feeling of flexibility, independence and empowerment it will offer you. Here's how to do it-- everything you need to [understand](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy).<br>
<br>Straight veggie oil fuel (SVO) [systems](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) can be a clean, [reliable](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) and [economical choice](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile). Unlike biodiesel, with SVO you need to modify the engine. The finest method is to fit an expert singletank SVO system with replacement injectors and glowplugs optimised for veg-oil, in addition to fuel heating.<br>
<br>With the German Elsbett single-tank SVO system for example you can use petro-diesel, [biodiesel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) or SVO, in any combination. Just start up and go, stop and switch off, like any other automobile. Journey to Forever's Toyota TownAce van uses an Elsbett single-tank system. More<br>
<br>There are also [two-tank](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) SVO systems which [pre-heat](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) the oil to make it thinner. You have to start the engine on common petroleum diesel or [biodiesel](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) in one tank and then switch to SVO in the other tank when the veg-oil is hot enough, and switch back to petro- or biodiesel before you stop the engine, or you'll coke up the injectors.<br>
<br>More info on straight veggie oil systems in my blog.<br>
<br>3. [Biodiesel](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) or SVO?<br>
<br>[Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) has some clear advantages over SVO: it works in any diesel, with no conversion or adjustments to the engine or the [fuel system--](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) simply put it in and go. It also has better cold-weather properties than SVO (but not as great as petro-diesel-- see Using biodiesel in winter season). Unlike SVO,<br>
<br>it's backed by lots of long-lasting tests in many nations, consisting of [countless miles](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) on the roadway.<br>
<br>[Biodiesel](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) is a clean, safe, ready-to-use, alternative fuel, whereas it's reasonable to say that lots of SVO systems are still speculative and require further development.<br>
<br>On the other hand, [biodiesel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) can be more pricey, depending how much you make, what you make it from and whether you're comparing it with new oil or utilized oil (and depending upon where you live). And unlike SVO, it has to be processed initially.<br>
<br>But the large and quickly growing worldwide band of homebrewers don't mind-- they make a supply each week or as soon as a month and quickly get used to it. Many have been doing it for several years.<br>
<br>Anyway you have to process SVO too, specifically WVO (waste vegetable oil, used, cooked), which lots of [individuals](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) with SVO systems use because it's low-cost or [totally free](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) for the taking. With [WVO food](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) [particles](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) and [impurities](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) and water must be gotten rid of, and it most likely needs to be deacidified too. Biodieselers say, "If I'm going to need to do all that I might also make biodiesel rather." But SVO types belittle that-- it's much less processing than making [biodiesel](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608), they say. To each his own.<br>
