Biodiesel is made through a chemical process called transesterification whereby the glycerin is separated from the fat or vegetable oil. The process leaves behind two products -- methyl esters (the chemical name for biodiesel) and glycerin (a valuable byproduct usually sold to be used in soaps and other products).

This is a common way. Used cooking oil is collected from a source like a fast food restaurant. The oil is then filtered of all of the impurities. This oil is then put into a separate tank and the engine started on regular diesel. When the engine has warmed up the tank can be switched to the bio-diesel and away you go. When you reach the end of your trip you must reverse the process to clean the bio-diesel out of the injectors. There are also methods of blending the fuels together and heating the bio-diesel.
