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

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.

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.
