Oil to Diesel

The process of converting use oil into diesel is a rather simple process and you can even make your own system to do this. Oil is sent through a boiler at very high temperatures and then into a distillation column. At various temperatures you will produce certain products. For our purpose of converting oil into diesel we are looking for a temperature range of 482 to 662 degrees Fahrenheit. When the oil is heated within the boiler is will cause it to boil producing vapor gases that are sent into a distillation column. As the vapors rise up the distillation column this will allow them to cool to a certain temperature and they turn into a liquid. This is the process that will allow us to turn used motor oil into diesel fuel.
