I would like some facts about producing my own . Found a company that sells biodiesel manufacturing equipment and im think of investing
What laws are there on production, selling it on to the "public" as it were etc.

I reckon there would be some kind of tax you have to pay if youre selling it for use as a fuel

You can produce 2500 litres a year for personal use without having to pay any duty.

I seen a van pass my house the other day,they collect old used oil and turn it into fuel.
You have to pay tax on anything you make over £6k i think it is.

ive read the same somewhere i think. I would be using it for personal use, but then i would want to sell the rest that i dont use. So i dont know if that comes under personal use?

Just donate it to me, and then I'll donate you some cash back. No selling taking place there

do as people without alcohol licenses do and sell raffle tickets to interested parties, which they can redeem for their 'prize' of fuel.
