1. A method of forming fuel from animal parts, comprising:
- a. utilizing animal parts as a feedstock;
b. mixing a chemical reactant with the animal parts to form an animal-chemical waste product;
c. transferring the animal-chemical waste product to a reactor;
d. heating the animal-chemical waste product in the reactor under pressure to form a gaseous composition; and
e. distilling the gaseous composition to form combustible fuel.

Abstract
A method and system utilizes animal parts as a feedstock to produce one or more combustible fuels or chemicals. The animal parts are mixed with a chemical waste to form an animal-chemical waste product. This animal-chemical waste product is transferred to a reactor and heated under pressure to form a gaseous composition. The gaseous composition is distilled to form one or more combustible fuels.
