Is there a business opportunity to export to the DR used oil to be processed?

Cool, you just took one of my ideas off my list of things that could/should be done here. I might become a customer then... Do you provide and install the conversion kits for diesel vehicles and generators or is that somthing I shall keep on MY list to do?

... J-D.

One of the reasons that WVO to commercial diesel is limited in the US is quality control and collection costs. Collection would be a low skill job for the reason! Cool!

Is your reactor built? How are you handling QC?

We have several reactors here manufactured and designed in the DR by ourselves. QC is handled in house and using a 3rd party in the DR.

Using Biodiesel requires NO convertion kits. Current clients are using our Biodiesel for electrical generation due to tax incentives.

In short YES.....

Although, I suspect transport costs would make it to costly.

I have PM'd you, I will be in DR tomorrow.
We use solar energy to pre-heat our oil prior to processing.
We cannot produce enough to supply wanting customers.
WE NEED MORE WVO!!!!!!
