If I remeber correctly my local guy told me he adds a 1 cup of viniger to 2 gallons of water mixes that then puts into the 85 gallon tank of oil. I don't remeber exactly when he does this in the process but it removes most of the "french fry" smell. I smelled the exhaust (please no jokes,) and the batch he was running was "bead oil" as he called it due to buying it from a local carnival and there was no odor other than the warm oil type smell.
The "glycerine byproduct" is being used as a fertilizer at a tree farm.
I'm still a newbie to all this but I figured he had the good part of $1500 in his setup as I added it in my head when he was explaining it. With a good chunk going to a portable pump to claim the oil ($400) and 85 gal holding tank ($300.)
The other added bonus is that this is going to be done on a agricultural farm land, so the inspections from the state and the states leaway to regulating what is done on agricultural land is minimal. Also what is the regulation on recycling oil in Florida as well as selling biodeisel? I do know the state of Florida has a $.23 cent tax right off the top. Does the EPA have any regulation on bio?
Disclaimer: I am learning to make this for my sole use in my own work equipment. I have no desire or means to give the big oil companies a run for their money.
If any of my equipment expells an odor that will make you hungry for fryed food and you gain a hell of alot of weight because of it please don't blame me. I have changed my moto from "round is a shape" to "round is a shape but I don't have to look that way."
BTW; Thanks for all the input!!
