Re: [biofuels-biz] Generally Stalled Motors

2002-02-10 Thread Shukrainternationals

We are on look out for a company having experience and technical expertise
on medium- to large-size biodiesel plants. These plants, to be established
in various regions in a tropical country, must be cost effective for local
markets and versatile enough to utilize the locally available raw material
(used grease, animal fat, used cooking oil and other fatty waste materials).

Currently, we have business activities in the country in consumer's products
with exclusive rights for several regions and access to an established
distribution network nationwide. Through our existing business, we have
access to financial resources to establish a series of biodiesel plants and
a wide network of distribution outlets.

We would like to hear from you of your interest in the project and would
appreciate any details about your products, expertise and experience.

Biosolids used to heat university
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Ga. -At the University of Georgia, home to thousands of students
raised on Southern fried chicken, chicken fat is being put to an unusual
use: heating the campus. Officials say it's cheap, it's safe -and it doesn't
make .the town smell like a KFC.

Chicken fat, restaurant grease and similar so-called biofuels could become a
good alternative to fuel oil, Georgia scientists say.

In tests during the last few weeks, the Department of Biological and
Agricultural Engineering has used giant steam boilers - converted to burn
animal fats - to heat water and buildings on campus.

Tom Adams, the department's outreach coordinator, said the fuel is safer for
people and the environment than burning coal and oil, and no one has
complained about odor.

The university spent about $30,000 to retrofit one of its big steam boilers
so that it could burn animal fats and oils as well as natural gas or fuel
oil. The campus' main boiler burns coal, but the others, including the
retrofitted one, kick in to meet increased demand in cold weather.

In tests that run several hours each day, the scientists have burned various
mixes of petroleum and animal oils - sometimes up to 100 percent chicken
fat, pork fat, beef tallow or other greases.

The fats give about 90 percent of the heat of fuel oil, Adams said, and the
resulting air emissions are comparatively low in sulfur and other
pollutants.

The project, funded by the Georgia-based U.S. Poultry  Egg Association and
the Fats and Protein Research Foundation in Illinois, also will test the
potential of animal fat in other applications, such as truck and auto
engines.

We've only scratched the surface, said Bob Synk, a consulting engineer on
the project.

[biofuel] Re: Vacuum distillation

2002-02-10 Thread Tony Elle Ackland

Roger,

excellent tony just the info that is needed. do you
have any thoughts on whether yeast will survive a low
vacuum environment?

Sorry - no ideas about that one.  On the whole though, yeast seems to be 
quite a hardy wee bugger, and will withstand quite a bit thrown at it. 
 Worth a try.

Re: [biofuel] Re: ethanol distillation

2002-02-10 Thread Randall Shelley Barron

You could use a Carbon dioxide scrubber to remove the CO2 and then still
be able to use a vacuum for distillation.

The House of Jade wrote:

  Well, you are now talking about vacuum fermentation for which there
 is a
 patented process. Stripping off ethanol as it is produced solves one
 problem
 but the problem is that the vacuum system must deal with the massive
 amounts
 of carbon dioxide being generated by the fermentation process; so
 vacuum
 fermentation of ethanol never got off the ground.

 Yes, it is possible to use a rather high vacuum to break the azeotrope
 and
 obtain 200 proof (absolute, anhydrous) ethanol. However, high vacuum
 distillation is best carried out in borosilicate glass, as metal
 stills are
 subject to crushing. A lot of ethanol will be wasted out the pump
 unless you
 have efficient cold trapping (usually acetone/dry ice slurry) with its
 own
 dangers. So, molecular sieves are easier and safer to render 96%
 ethanol
 anhydrous.

 Also bear in mind that anhydrous ethanol will very efficiently soak up

 moisture from the air and return to the azeotropic state, so to keep
 it dry,
 you must handle it using special atmosphere-excluding techniques.

 Hope this helps...

I guess that begs the question, what handy dandy thingamajig do we use, to
put together a CO2 scrubber ( sorry, I'm just not familuar with CO2
scrubbers, so while I know what they do, I don't know how they work or are
made ).

Re.: BIOFUELS -European_Union( COM 2001-547-Proposal for a Council Directive )
Subject :Pure Plant Oil ( as an alternative fuel for Dieselengines)
User categories : transport,energy/heating generating appliances.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Since mid-1990, in Europe, U.S.A, The Far-East and Africa, research and 
development  has taken place to use Pure Plant Oil for diesel engine fuels, and 
heating/energy(electricity) generating purposes.

Particularly in Europe during the last 5 years testprogrammes have been 
succesfully implemented to use Pure Plant Oil as an alternative fuel for diesel 
engines.
Today more than 5000 diesel-engine equiped vehicles and means of 
transportation, are using 
Pure Plant Oil instead of dieselfuel with amazing results, whereas the oldest 
motorcar(mercedes) has driven more than 600.000 kilometers on Pure Plant Oil.

The categories of dieselengines using Pure Plant Oil are ranging from farm- 
tractors,motorcars and trucks to locomotives and shipengines, as well as light 
and heavy diesel generators.
Making dieselengines to completely accept  Pure Plant Oil as fuel and still be 
able to use dieselfuel, the engines are generally modified and equiped with 
additional motorparts as developed by the famous Elsbett(Germany) dieselengine 
division.
In the world of engines ELSBETT is known as frontrunner and innovator, 
holding many patents of new applicable techniques for diesel engines. As 
European awards winners (1997-1999), are they  famous as the inventors of  the 
by motorcar/truck makers worldwide applied TDI-sytems(Turbo Diesel Injection), 
making diesel engines run much more economical.
The developed techniques of Elsbett have made it possible to use both Pure 
Plant Oil or diesel fuel, whichever preferable.(Dual-fuel engine).

Pure Plant Oil is derived from oilcontaining plants, like rapeseed, soybean , 
sunflower, palmoiltrees etc.

Rapeseed oil for example is an excellent plant oil, very suitable to grow in 
Europe, giving a high yield of plant oil, and generally mainly used in the food 
sector as edible oil.

In the Non-food sector it has gradually gained strong interest as a basic 
component for the production of the socalled Biodiesel (RME).
Biodiesel is a chemically altered plantoil. As fuel it can be blended with 
dieseloil, as well as 
it can be used as a singular fuel,without modifying the diesel engine.

However the process to chemically change the structure of Pure Plant Oil, is a 
very costly
operation and requires a lot of energy, as it removes the glycerine 
substituting it by  methanol as well as adding other chemicals, making the 
endproduct poisenous and equally hazardous as dieselfuel.

 As long as this is still in the theory stage:  Remember that

 You may be able able to keep it operation long enough to validate

I hadn't considered that. You are correct. I'll have to give that 
some more thought. All others are welcome to contribute, too. Maybe 
an in-line oil-mister for Mechanics air wrenches? This is for fuel 
purposes, NOT drinking.


 
 As long as you are using a propane tank in the system.  Have you 
 considered using a larger tank.  Using the air comnpressor draw a 
 vacuum onto the tank and then use it as a stored energy source.  A 
 typical thousand gallon service propane tank with special plumbing 
 and valving will retain a good volume of vacuum and then with 
special 
 valve controls, you can apply it as needed.  
I had a 100 pound (20 gallon?) tank in mind, for a cheap version of 
a 'slobber-box'. A prototype will have to be done with readily 
availble(and real cheap) materials.


Good inputs,
