Hi Jeffrey,
Short term there may not be a problem. Long term (3-12 months) BioD because it is an ester will soften (dissolve) most plastics and make them unusable.

Subject: [Biofuel] Using plastic pails
Dear all,
A quick queston. Is it okay to use plastic pails I find around my house
to built the reactor tank, and other tanks for the biodiesel process instead
of stainless steel? It is some much cheaper and easier to work with
plastics. Will there be unforseen problems with this? Thanks guys.
Jeff
