Ithaca Biodiesel Cooperative is just starting up this summer/fall. Right now only SVO is available, but hopefully BD will be available soon too. The web site is still a work in progress (www.ithacabiodiesel.org).

Well that's cool. I work in Cortland, which is only about 20 minutes down the road. Todd

Taylor in Somerville now has more options than just the pails.  They have 55 gal drums and 300 gal totes available.  The pails are still $25 each, and currently the drums are $200 each ($3.64/gal) and the totes are $900 ($3.00/gal).  Those include the cost of the container, and the totes I think include delivery within a certain range.  Those prices are for B100.  I am waiting for another reply about blend prices, and to find out if it would be any cheaper to pick up the tote in somerville, or to bring a tote and get it filled.  I will update when I know more.  It is more expensive than I would like, but I have not been able to get myself set up to process my own, so it may have to do for now.  If anyone in the area wants to buy some of it from me, I will ask $.10/gal above what it costs me to cover my pump, guage, filters, and electricity.

And the followup.  If you bring your own tote to the yard in Somerville, they will fill it (300 gal) for $800 (2.67/gal).  For large orders like that, they do need som e lead time in the winter because they don't keep much on hand (because of the cloud point).  The contact there is still Rick Workman, and while he only seems to check email once a day, he is very helpful.

Im intersested i Joining a biodiesel coop. I live in Fort Lee and want to start running my 2003 vw beetle tdi on Biodiesel. email me at dugty@yahoo.com

I am looking for Biodiesel on Long Island, or in Queens. Prefferably somewhere were I can pull up and fill my tank like a traditional gas station. OR, I'd be willing to buy 55 gallon drums if I could get them delivered to my house.

 Can anyone help me out. I have tried Vogelbilt several times but he is not selling it anymore.

 
Thanks

John

Hi,

 I am new to the area, Bergen County, and work down in Princeton Junction.  Any places for Biodiesel besides Taylor Oil?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you

Cara7 I'm in New Rochelle and I converted my truck to run on WVO.In the winter it just doesn't work without thinning so if you have plans for making bio I would be very interested and willing to help.

I am very new to biodiesel, but would love to start a production center and coop for NYC/NJ metro area. I am based out of Staten Island NY and currently run my own business. Billy

ARE YOU UP AN RUNNG YET OR WHAT? i AM INTERESTED i GREW UP IN CREAMRIDGE  ROEBLING GUY

I am on the Nassau Suffolk Border and I am interested in starting a co-op. What I can being to the table is the expertise to build the processor for about $1,500. What I do not have a lot of is space and time. If someone has comercial space locally to spare and a wilingness to particpate please contact me. I will be honest and say that although I am not an expert in the field, I am 100% confident that I can build an effiecient reactor that takes up very little space and is proven to work well and safely.  With a few interested parties, we could devide up the work of sourcing the best WVO available and rotate shifts in procesing it. I would also propose hiring a consultant to help us get started. Anyone interested? All of my research has convinced me to start small and work up as we become more efficient. So that is the plan for now.  Let me know what you think.

HI, Ed I'm interested also. Let me know. Thanks Scott

Total Fuels sell the biodiesel for over 5 dollars a gallon. YIKES

I was hoping it might be cheaper than regular diesel.

Why is it all commercial processors are very very expensive. Beware people, there

are entities trying to make a quick OVERINFLATED buck on our interest of making biodiesel
