To Create Biodiesel Or To Procure Biodiesel This is The Only Question

By modifying your diesel powered vehicle you could use virgin vegetable oils for fuel like Rudolf Diesel or use a blend of vegetable oils and petroleum or kerosene as fuel. But many choose waste oils and even animal fats to use for bio-diesel production. This is a green and eco-friendly alternative fuel.
