I visited a small biodiesel plant in Tennessee yesterday.  Several things came from this visit.
 
The plant produces 6000 gallons of biodiesel per day.  Currently it is operating on premium grade poultry fat. Previously it was using soybean oil.
 
The owner will test process CTT oil for us to demonstrate its effectiveness as a biofuel using standard transesterfication processes.
 
The plant itself can be built for about $600,000 anywhere in the world to produce about 2,000,000 gallons per year.  This is about 25% of the cost of a standard biodiesel facility including remote sensors for telecommunicated control from the manufacturer's supervision site.
 
The owner also has a 60kw 3 phase diesel generator on site which he will operate for us on straight CTT oil or on the converted biodiesel to demonstrate the viability of this technique.
 
So, we can begin whenever we can obtain enough CTT seed to extract a test supply of oil and tallow.
