Product Description

Biodiesel Basics and Beyond aims to separate fact from fiction and to educate potential home, farm, and cooperative manufacturers on the economic production of quality biodiesel from both waste and virgin oil feedstock. The book includes:

  • detailed processes and equipment required to produce biodiesel fuel that meets North American standards
  • how farmers can use excess oilseed as a feedstock for biodiesel production
  • the use of the co-byproduct glycerin in the making of soap
  • a guide to numerous reference materials and a list of supplier data

This is North America’s definitive guide to responsibly producing biodiesel from waste vegetable oil while minimizing your environmental footprint in the process.

5 out of 5 stars biodiesel basics and beyond   September 6, 2008
Excellent book.Very comprehensive,a must read for anyone who is either making home brew biodiesel or intends to.


5 out of 5 stars Well layed out.   April 7, 2008

This book was very well written and researched. The book is detailed but still very interesting. I felt lead by some suspense. I was thinking, "Given all the hard truths, Can he really make it work for the home scale producer?!?" - and in the end, he does.
I wish he'd said a little more about using SVO but that's not what this is about.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent book - an ABSOLUTE MUST for your bookshelf   March 8, 2008

After researching most of the books available on the market on the subject of BIO-DIESEL I eventually settled for this book.
It is well-written and covers every aspect of the manufacture of bio-diesel that the smaller-scale individual would look for in a book. The author is well-versed in his subject and is a definate must-have book if you are looking to get into this field.
Definately worth 5/5 stars from me.



4 out of 5 stars Very useful little book for saving the planet   February 22, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

This book is great and details exactly how to make and use your own biodisel. It also covers saftey and logistical aspects of creating it which I thought was quite nice. The only reason though that i gave it 4 stars was becuase it is a bit wordy. There is a lot of information in this book and it can be overwhelming but overall it is very good and useful.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book!   January 29, 2008

This book was purchased to get a better understanding of the biodiesel production process and industry. It also goes into great detail in how to build your own quality biodiesel plant. The author also dispells the fact from fiction involving quality biodiesel production. It is a good book for the person very interested in building a plant and is wanting to make an educated decision before he builds the plant. Overall, Great Book!
