What is the difference between Biodiesel and WVO?
“Waste Vegetable Oil” can be used directly in diesel engine but requires extensive modifications to modern engines to allow the fuel to burn correctly and to remove the residues formed from burning fatty acids, soaps and glycerin found naturally in all vegetable oils. These modifications can cost upwards of $4000.00. “Biodiesel” uses a process called “transesterification” to remove those soaps and glycerin prior to being used as fuel.
