I have a friend here in the high country who owns a nursery. I called her to order me some special plants and learned that she is making bio fuel. She goes around to all the restaurants and collects the grease. Then she puts it in some barrel and lets the sediment drop. Then she puts it in a reactor...whatever that is...and does some boiling and adds organic lye or some acid. I stopped her in the middle of her explanation and said, I have to come over and SEE what you do. I cannot visualize anything you are describing... However, I asked, what do you think your fuel to run your generators for your Green Houses and trucks costs.. A dollar fifty a gallon... When I go to pick up my plants.... I will see this whole process. Meanwhile the resident who built a home across the river from me used thermo energy.He drilled down far enough to hit warm water and ran the hot water under his floors in copper pipes(we saw the pipes all along his floors when he was building the house and wondered what they were for as they were close together ...) The only problem he tired to dump the water after it was used in the trout stream and we had to stop him. The warm water is not conducive to having the trout happy... not the fisher people. Anyway thought this story would interest you..our energy man.
