Personally I use a oil fuel oil furnace burner with a modified nozzle systems that preheats the oil to~ 300F just before it exits the nozzle so that it will be thin enough to spray like normal fuel oil.
Here's the links to the threads I have here on what I work with.

Ok, thanks ... I've had no experience with them ... so that was very helpful seeing what they consist of ... and what's involved in building the oil burner and boiler ... and the extent of your work ... that's pretty amazing.
As for finding used oil be careful on asking around. Word will get out and you will become overwhelmed with the stuff in a short time.
Mmm ... I'd have to keep a pretty low profile with that quantity of oil storage ... the EPA would be around in a flash ... someone would spot it and dob me in.
I like the principle but my issue is with the realistic scaling required to service a typical home.
Yeah ... I spent a lot of time trying to understand the scale of a practical, workable system ... to see if might be worth doing here.
In my area I need around 1 million BTU per day average for a winter season which with the bio methane approach at ~1000 BTU per cubic foot of gas that's ~1000 cubic feet per day just for what I am heating now which when the new house, and maybe someday, the big shop get added to the load that number will double or triple.
That's something I have to study up on for our region. Volts, amps, current are part of my everyday vocabulary ... but BTU's, Degrees Farenheit

, kPa etc are like a foreign language.
I'm certain our requirements are probably an order of magnitude lower than yours ... weather here is pretty mild. It's newsworthy if there's ever any snowfall in the state ... maybe once or twice a decade and I've never seen any here.
I have no idea what size of digester would be required to keep up with that but I doubt that a few tote tanks is anywhere close to enough.
From the amount of oil you use, I'd be surprised too ... but I need to start somewhere.
Even a few hours a day, methane supplementing the heating in our house and in my workshop would be worthwhile.
Plus beyond that, how much feedstocks would it take to reliably produce that amount of gas on demand and how much labor would be involved in making the system stay functional all winter?
Yeah ... I'm pretty lazy when it comes to some of that stuff ... especially when you can just flick a switch to make most things happen ... at least until I get the bill !!! We have quite a bit of grass and sheep manure in the paddock alongside ... though the grass drys off over summer. Certainly have some dairies close ... but that would be worse than cutting firewood !
I know how to handle solid fuels and liquid fuels in my boilers easily and efficiently enough but a biological based fuel source that cant be shut off when not needed seems problematic to me.
I wondered about that too ... but supposedly you just stop feeding it ... and the generation slows down pretty smartly. Depending how it's stored ... a lot of users let it burp off if it gets full ... and claim that's a legit and safe enough way of handling it.
Also as I get older the labor part seems to be less and less favorable. ~16 - 17 years ago gathering and cutting the ~15 - 20 cords of wood for a winter and spending 15 - 20 minutes a day feeding and cleaning it was no big deal but now it rather sucks compared to bringing in a years plus worth of used oil in a few hours time and spending 10 - 15 minutes every other week servicing and cleaning out the boiler.
Haha ... yeah ... sounds like me. I just bought a new chainsaw for smaller stuff ... about 5kg ... the old McCulloch I inherited from my dad is 55 years old and weighs 15.5kg. That's hard work ... but it still works fantastic.

And I just busted it with the last load we got ... the dogging spikes came loose ... rotated across and busted off half the teeth on one side of the chain.
I went in to buy a new chain a few years ago and the guy literally laughed at me ... prick! I think I've found some secondhand stuff ... just waiting to find out for sure. The rest of it's not worn out yet.
I'll look more into the how I would use an oil burner. If I were to build one it would have to be out of the house ... but then I'd have to install a heap of water heaters (hydronics?) around the house ... with the associated plumbing. Still sounds easier than collecting sheep manure and grass everyday like you said.
