I've been involved in alternative energy for the past 20 years or so, but I started making and using bio on a bigger than "home-brewer" size about 4 1/2 years ago. I was never happy with the "appleseed" style of processor, and with a background in farming, and research and development I took a different path. Along the way I built and tried a lot of different systems. I now have a system that will produce 100 gallons per hour of ASTM spec biodiesel on a continuous basis.

I started growing my own Canola oilseed 2 years ago. This year I raised enough canola to produce 22,000 of biodiesel on 100 acres of ground.

Not bad for an old fart ( and my name is Don)
