Is making high-quality ';Biodiesel'; from Expired and/or Recycled Waste Vegetable Oil (WVO) a potentially .....?

... viable business proposition for developing nations?





Assuming you:





1- can get the Expired or WVO at no or very low cost (i.e. transportation / recycle collection expenses)





2- have access to an affordable labor force





3- mean to produce it on a reasonably large scale to sustain a relatively large size business and NOT just for personal use





4- mean to produce a high-quality Biodiesel and hope to sell the glycerin byproduct to the industry as well





5- can market the Biodiesel directly to the target customers (e.g. trucks, buses, heating market, etc.)





Would the upfront cost of a reasonably large Conversion / Reactor Facility plus the other ongoing costs of production / operation / distribution (fix and variable) make this a potentially viable business opportunity for ';the developing country markets';?





And do you know of similar type operations (on large scale) anywhere in the world that you can direct my attention to?

We (me and mine) have a vegetable oil issue now, trying to adapt for hydraulic use. Should be pretty simple, but we need a low temp product, 100 degrees or less for waht we are doing.
