Business Hours
Monday - Friday 10 - 6PM
Wednesday open until 8PMHouston Biodiesel is here to advise, educate, sell, assist, and just take the mystery out of using clean, renewable, non-toxic, domestically produced B100 biodiesel.
We are NOT a producer! Let me say that again - we are not a producer. We sell quality biodiesel that exceeds (ASTM) D-6751 specifications. Drive in and fill your tank or we can arrange for a full transport load to your facility nationwide. We're here to help take the mystery out of using biodiesel. Please see our FAQ page for basic biodiesel info before calling us. We'd love to talk with you but please do some basic homework first.
Our staff of diesel enthusiasts burn clean B100 biodiesel in our personal vehicles, forklift, genset, warehouse heater (winter only), and various other company equipment all year round. In 2002 when we first learned about biodiesel we quickly started using this cleaner burning renewable energy source. Biodiesel plays a significant and immediate role in helping to curb current energy and global warming problems.
Customers include individuals driving diesel vehicles like: VW, Jeep, Mercedes, all the pickup trucks and vans. We also have fleet accounts, construction companies, and heavy trucks using straight biodiesel. Just about anyone who has a diesel motor vehicle, generator, or kerosene heater can use biodiesel.
RECYCLING PROGRAM - we can recycle just about everything!
Houston Biodiesel in combination with the superb efforts of wecanrecycle.org can recycle used cooking oil, used glycerin, glass (all colors), tin, paper, cardboard, plastic, and aluminum . We have special containers in our yard for these materials. Next time you come in for a fill up of biodiesel please bring your recyclables.GLYCERIN DISPOSAL
Houston Biodiesel now takes your unwanted used homebrew glycerin. Disposal fee for crude glycerin is $0.20/gal.
CLOSED THIS FRIDAY
Most common questions:
NO, you do NOT have to convert your vehicle to use biodiesel. Just pour biodiesel in your tank and drive. That's the whole point of biodiesel. There is nothing to do but pump and go.
Yes, biodiesel will blend with petrol diesel in any percentage.
The pump is self serve. Even though biodiesel is non-toxic and biodegradable please be mindful not to drip or spill at the pump.
Rapeseed oil is a primary source of raw oil feedstock in Europe for biodiesel production. Rapeseed oil produces 1000 KG oil/Hectare compared to soybean of 375 KG oil/hectare. Oil Palm produces the most at a huge 5000 KG/Hectare. Algae is coming......
Homebrewer Workshops - Next date TBA:
Workshops are held on a Saturday from 9-2PM. Workshop options include the Biodiesel Book, Titration Kit, and a T-Shirt.
About once a month Houston Biodiesel holds a homebrew workshop. If you're interested in producing your own high quality biodiesel safely then you should attend a biodiesel workshop. Be one of the 12 persons in our workshop to learn how to produce superior quality biodiesel. This is not a reactor building workshop but a biodiesel process workshop. In the workshop you'll learn hands on how to make your own biodiesel start to finish with a proven method. Topics covered: ion exchange washing, water washing, WVO pre treatment, filtering, loading and heating reactor, single and two-stage reaction, titration, methoxide mixing & injecting, settling, glycerin separation, drying, vacuum methanol recovery, quality testing, and so much more. We teach a proven method that really works. Save countless internet hours and get the straight scoop on a process that is proven to work. No prior Biodiesel or brewing knowledge is necessary to attend.
You are welcome to attend the class whether you're interested in making biodiesel, want to get into the renewable business, or just want to learn more about this fantastic alternative fuel. Teachers: bring your students for half price. Instructor is Chris Powers with additional help from Charlie Fietz, Carl Krueger, Marcus, and Shane.
