That's the easy one, of course.

But maybe diesel can be sliced-and-diced into plastics or something?

(Just a wild idea in the late evening.)

There is a lot of difference in diesel quality and also a variety of products in it. If you can process the furfurol out of red diesel, you might become rich or jailed. Diesel has glycerin and sulfur in it, to name a few, that can be derived further, again depending on the quality of the stock.

Glycerin (diesel jelly) can be separated at low temperature. Furfurol is a dye added to diesel (red) to make a difference between diesel for heating (lower price - taxes). This is a technique, used in Europe by some governments.

Customs do road checks and fine a lot (or confiscate the vehicle) when even traces of the furfurol are found in diesel in cars.

In the beginning they took samples from the tank with a suction hose, but they became more experienced and take these now at the filter.

BTW diesel can also contain water.

This is starting to sound like a nefarious scheme to me.

I think you are stealing this fuel and selling it on the black market and have saturated the current diesel fuel black market. Since you can't sell any more in its original form, you are now looking for ways to alter it to make even more money illegally.

Am I right?

Is the diesel clean? Is it Gulf diesel?

You can actually market it in small quantities. The model of the transparent bottle can do wonders if you work on it (see the coca cola bottle)

It makes a fantastic repellent after this:

What, did you give up on the idea of taking market share and the growth demand in Concrete Ready Mix? Just curious, do you do any research on your own about your ideas? Diesel is a petroleum product, you need to research, "What can you make out of petroleum?" And when you find a Get Rich Scheme, Please do come back and share it with us. We all would like to supplement our incomes
