Biodiesel fuel is a cleaner burning, renewable alternative to diesel fuel made from any biologically based oil. While commercial Biodiesel is commonly made from virgin vegetable oils pressed from soybean, canola, peanut, or sunflower seeds, many small processing facilities around the world take advantage of waste fryer oil from restaurants.
