as long as the machine cleans the added 'ingredients' then you should be fine

Err....NOT!!
That sounds like WVO which is waste oil that has been filtered but still contains bonded fats.
Biodiesel is the process of transesterification which breaks the bond of glycerin from the esters...the bio in other words..this can be used in most diesels because it is thinner than WVO...its the viscosity of the oil which causes prob on some vehicles.

Go have look on here.
