They have been making it like crazy, I hope they can fulfill your needs.

My experience hasn't shown alot of luck running stoves, heaters and
the like with biodiesel or WVO. Not to say that it can't be done. The
pre-heat tube needs to be longer, even with biodiesel it just never
got warm enough to get a good spray pattern from the nozzle, WVO is
even worse.

About 32oz of Technol to 200 gal B99/B100, The ratio is supposed to be 750:1

Jerry has mentioned an Amsoil product, I have yet to hear if it is
formulated for B100.

There is another product I've been looking into out of the UK called
Biostable. I'll let you know what I find out.

So far though ... yesterday was a 29F morning, and the day before was
27F in the morning and the fuel in the prefilter on our 83 Mercedes
looked fine, started fine and had no problems. Of course once the
ambient drops to 20F then I would start to worry for Soy Methyl
Esters.
