Hi all,

This is my first post in the forum.

I'm currently thinking of producing biodiesel as i have some animal fat available as a waste.

My question is, if i need more feedstock than what i have available as animal fat, can i blend it with oil(virgin or waste cooking oil) and use the combined blend as a feedstock? And if yes in what proportions?

Thank you very much

Gday,YES,whatever ratio suits you.regards westwinds

Thank you very much

Any chance i can find this somewhere in written because i need to put it in a report and it needs some kind of referencing...?

Gday LefterisSin,Put in your report that westwinds on this forum has used WVO and tallow in different ratios with no problems.regards westwinds

Lets not be rude.
LefterisSin if you find some biodiesel prodicers (you will need to find some your self) if you look at their feed stock you will see what they use. In warmer climates they can use tallow. In colder climates you cant use tallow as sole feed stock with 100% biodiesel as there are gelling issues.

take care
