Re: [Biofuel] California Emissions
californiaia has not test for auto or pickuppp emissiaonss for diesel,, From: Greg Ocnos [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.org To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.org Subject: [Biofuel] California Emissions Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2006 15:19:32 -0500 I am thinking of buying a Jeep Liberty diesel. I live in Massachusetts and they do not sell diesel cars any more because of the high standard of emissions. I would have to go out of state to buy this Jeep. These vehicles must pass an emissions test every other year. Mind you, you can buy a full size pickup with a diesel and they have a different standard to use. Would the use of 20% biodiesel let this vehicle pass this California emissions test? What are these people looking at that makes it fail emissions. What can I do about it? Greg O.

Re: [Biofuel] methanol recovery from fuel stock?
what the boilling point of diesel is but itw way below the boiling point of water at 212,, buck From: JJJN [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.org To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.org Subject: Re: [Biofuel] methanol recovery from fuel stock? Date: Fri, 04 Nov 2005 19:31:32 -0800 Hi Derick, I too am curios about this, but isnt 275 deg F on the edge of the envelope Bio? I would like to try this as well but instead use a vacume to keep the temp down. how much ethanol did you recover? That alone may make it worth while. Jim Derick Giorchino wrote: I have pondering this for some time but figured I should get some success with making fuel first. Since alcohol is added from time to time to storage tanks so it will mix with the water and thus the blended alcohol water mixes with the fuel. This being the said, I wondered if the wash could be shortened or less of a waste problem by distilling the methanol out of the finished product before washing. I have just finished a 120 liter batch I pulled off 1 liter of fuel stock ¸ I put in a old pressure cooker with the steam vent replaced with a hose barb and connected it to my evaporator. Turned the flame on and heated to 275 deg F for 10 minutes or so. Let it cool a bit and pored it into a pet bottle added the wash water shook it hard it separated in just a few minutes. The other half was just put in a pet bottle and wash water was added and shook it hard although it is separating not even close to the same speed as the demethanoled batch. Is there any problem with this process? I wouldnât ask but I canât find anything in the archives.

Can anyone tell me 1) what the lining inside a natural gas fired water heater tank is made of, and 2) are there any known ways of removing it without damaging the tank beneath? I am in the very early stages of helping a neighbor build a waste oil heater. He has a surplus of these tanks, but very little in the way of money. Since I have already built one, and it is still working just fine I agreed to help him build his. Is that a Mother Earth News heater Mike? This one: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel_library/ethanol_motherearth/me4.html Mother Earth: Waste Oil Heater If so, which design did you/will you use? - the original, with no power required, or the new-fangled one some of us have been working on, with a forced air supply? It's said the original design does not burn hot enough for safe and clean combustion of modern lube oil, which has much higher burning temps than it did 25 years ago when the heater was designed. It seems though that some people who've built them don't agree with that, they find it works just fine. What do you think? I don't know about this because we've never tried it with waste lube oil. We have one built to the original design, here: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel_library/ethanol_motherearth/me7.html Journey to Forever's Waste Oil Heater But we've only ever used it with WVO, as we'd intended, and it works fine. We're using it right now. It makes all the difference to keeping this old house warm. It doesn't burn hot enough for clean combustion of the glycerin by-product from making biodiesel though - it does burn it, but it quickly gets gunged up. This is why we've been working on the forced-air design. We should be testing it soon. Best wishes Keith All these plans are on temporary hold though because neither of us genius's knew that these tanks were lined. Oh well, plenty of time for more planning and perhaps one more beer.

I tried to get in touch with that company in the UK which took over the Lucas CAV systems and others (forget the name at the moment) but it's a huge conglomerate and I got nowhere at all. Well Buck, you seem to be very knowledgeable on this subject, what I am trying to do is figure out how a LucasCAV rotary pump could be modified to tolerate filtered and heated svo/wvo. I have heard that 'grooving the vanes' might be an idea but quite honestly I really don't know what the guy was talking about as I have never been inside any pump ever. I would though if I thought I knew a bit about what I was doing and therefore I have been looking high and low for a book or indeed an 'exploded view' poster. So of course I am wondering if you or any other list member has a source for this information and would be prepared to share.

The «88 has turned over 500 000 km now so perhaps are the replacement part better than original... Quite right about the sulphur, Sweden often want to be world leading in environmental issues and our diesel is weary low sulphur. That causes a lot of problems for car and trucks and most diesel drivers ad extra lubricants as STP or RedLine. I have a Fiat diesel that refuses to pump fuel without RedLine Additive. Perhaps shall I try with a few percent B100 or SVO instead? :-) Anyone knows where to order the stainless steel shock coupler?

In any case, SVO is not nearly as good a solvent as biodiesel. The issue with high percentage blends of biodiesel and B100 is that it's a solvent that attacks the pump seals. That's the theory, but is it really an issue? Dino-diesel seems to be just as corrosive, even when it's not LSD or ULSD. After all this time, do we actually have a clear-cut case of pump seals being corroded by biodiesel? We do hear of corroded seals, but I don't know of any where biodiesel was proven to be the culprit, or the sole culprit. As an issue I think it's overrated. If anyone is concerned about biodiesel rotting their pump seals I'd say go ahead and do it, it's unlikely to happen, if it does happen it's as likely to be a natural death anyway, and it's unlikely to be a sudden catastrophe, you'll have warning. Best wishes Keith SVO does not do that, not to any great extent at least. The issue with SVO, on the other hand is viscosity. Heating it to 70C (roughly) gets it into the range that it can be tolerated by pumps - some tolerate it better than others. Inline pumps do best, but many rotary pumps do ok as well. There are lots of Stanadyne pumps using heated vegoil. If your pump has had to be rebuilt a few times, on diesel, this is because it was subjected to low sulphur diesel, most likely. That fuel does not provide adequate lubricity. Interestingly, only 0.1% addition of a Canola (rapeseed) derived lubricity additive would have likely saved the pump! If you use cold pressed rapeseed oil, heated, two tank system, I think you've have very good chances of success with SVO. There is for example a John Deere tractor (in Sweden) with a Roosa pump - over 600 hours I believe, on rapeseed SVO. Regards, Edward Beggs B.E.S. M.Sc.

RE: [Biofuel] old diesel engine
some are very espanese to rebuildl just because of thei age , rarity, Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2004 08:11:54 -0800 Alex: Do yourself a big favor. If you have never dealt with a head gasket, take the engine to a reputable mechanic and have them check out the head before replacement. Then they will install the head in the proper sequence, torque the bolts in the proper sequence and adjust the valves if they are solid lifters. You can do this yourself but a diesel engine is not a good platform to be educated on. You will make some mistake and it will be costly. Sorry. Gene -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Erik Lane Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 1:09 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Biofuel] old diesel engine Well, kinda correct. Different engines have different configurations, but for a standard inline four stroke engine here's how it is: The block has the cylinders in it with the pistons running up and down inside them. To close them off to get compression there's a big chunk of metal (the head) that bolts to the top of the whole engine block to seal it off. This is also where the valves are kept. The head gasket is a large flat sheet of sealing material (can be metal or fiber) with holes in it to allow the bolts to go thru, the coolant and oil to flow, and for the cylinders. The head gasket sits between the head and the block - sandwiched. As far as the torques that the bolts get tightened to - it's likely higher for a diesel, but I don't know them by heart. I look it up every time I do a job cause for every car they're different. Just depends on how it's all engineered. But yes, doing a head gasket job on a diesel is almost exactly the same as on a gas engine - just surface differences. If you get a good service manual it will lead you thru the job step by step.

RE: Fw: [biofuel] Cloudy Biodiesel ZZaagaind
the wassshed ceramic filter is an analytic tooll not production, it is the siaze and thiacknesss of small coffee filter,,,and made from very samalll ceramic fiber, it does not degrade in almost any sloution so that nothing will contaminateee the filtratee ,, what i said was if he wanted to fin what the clousdy crystals were,, i suggested to chill some fuel and run it thruuu washed ceramic filter,, so that the cloudy stuff woudl stay in the filter and be esxamined, What's this washed ceramic filter? The links I read about making biodiesel don't say anything about filtering. Ken I'm also wondering if they are referring to a distillation process. When I recently heard about glass doughnuts used in glass columns to collect hydrogen peroxide, I tried to find a few. My associate thought that they may be referring to Raschig Rings and I copied out an ad from a chemical supply company about the rings as seen below. Ceramic rings have been mentioned in the past. However, the ones used in the peroxide capture column were clear glass. Since one biofuel ethanol producer suggests using marbles in the three inch still, I thought the glass doughnuts could offer more surface area. Most of the distillers talk about stainless steel scrubbers. Cost and effectiveness are important. More information is appreciated. Peggy PURPOSE AND BENEFITS AquaVet's Raschig Rings are an efficient biological and coarse mechanical filtration product for use in closed system aquaculture. They are particularly appropriate for high flow power filters, with either open or enclosed filter cartridges, because Raschig Rings easily handle high water flow rates and resist clogging. The rings break up the water flow through the filter, preventing channeling or bypassing of the water around the filter materials. Raschig Rings provide an excellent mechanical filtration, promote extensive biological filtration, and enhance the effectiveness of subsequent filter materials. BIOLOGICAL FILTRATION Raschig Rings have proven extremely effective in promoting biological filtration, because they are an exceptionally good base for nitrifying bacteria. Constructed of a porous ceramic stoneware; Raschig Rings possesses a positive electronic change, so slight it is generally unnoticed, which attracts the nitrifying bacteria needed for biological filtration. The open ring or noodle shape, combined with the porous nature of the stoneware, provide a tremendous surface area which can support a population of billions of bacteria in a relatively small filter compartment area. MECHANICAL FILTRATION Raschig Rings are a very effective mechanical filtering material, especially in coarse screening. Mechanically the filter rings break up the water flow through the filter forcing the water flow to spread evenly without channeling or bypassing or clogging the filter materials. The rings regain and entrap large particles of debris which are worn down by water turbulence and bacterial action. SPECIFICATIONS Raschig Rings are constructed of high-temperature-furnace-fired ceramic stoneware rings with hollow centers, approximately 9/16 (15 mm) in diameter and 5/8 (16 mm) in over all length. Each filter ring has a little over 1 square inch of outer surface area; 1 lb. of Raschig Rings contains about 300 filter rings, with 300 sq. inches of available outer surface area. These figures do not consider the microscopic small surface cavities and porosity of the ceramic material. There are about 10,000 Raschig Rings per cubic foot, with about 10,000 sq. inches of available outer surface area. The approximate weight per cubic foot of Raschig Rings is 55 lbs.

[Biofuel] storage in a hot climate@@

My humidity is worse in the winter, since that is when we get liquid sunshine. grin I am looking into rice husk ash as a way to make the paper adobe more fire proof and perhaps help it withstand the weather better. Bales must be paid for, hauled in by truck and are a 2 man job to stack. Paper adobe uses my heavy clay and waste paper of which lots is available locally. Paper adobe is a one man job, so I can work on it while my DH is at work. Also, the paper adobe is much lighter requiring a less substantial foundation for the building. Each climate has it's own demands, what works well in one place is not the correct solution for everywhere. If we search, we can find a solution that will work for our own climate that is good for Mother Earth as well, if we are lucky enough that the government does not interfere. By the way, I have left paper adobe out in the winter in the rain and had it survive with only about 20% disintegration, not bad for dirt and paper. The big problem with traditional construction is termites. Either I would have to put the building up on posts about 3 feet off the ground or do chemical termite treatments. It is very difficult to build up in the air and have the building with stand the storms we get. I am tearing down a traditional construction built this way due to storm damage. Winds of 100 mph gusting to 130 mph are not unusual here. The buildings wind up being so tall, since 10 foot ceilings are a real benefit with our heat, that it is scary working on the upper walls and roof. We do not use a work crew, I do most of the building myself. Bright Blessings, Kim At 07:28 AM 9/14/2004, you wrote: Ya' know Kim, You could put the matter to test quite simply. Build a six bale yard bench and wait and see. Construction in winter might also address the humidity issue in the presence of open bales.

A water proof covering that does not breath will rot bales faster than leaving them outside due to condensation. There is no way in an extremely humid climate to get real dry bales, they are going to have a fairly high humidity. Seal them in and let the weather happen, and temperature dropping 40degrees F in 10 minutes are not unusual as a blue northern blows in, and you have a major condensation problem in your wall. Considering that I have watched fire ants eat through concrete, I do not believe that it is possible to seal the critters out of any wall, eventually they will be in your bale wall. I make it a habit to test materials in the harshest kind of tests before I build with them. I want to know how much damage the weather can do to them. I have been hit once already by a tornado, winds of 130 mph have happened more than once. Buildings do get damaged in storms, it takes time to repair the damage, especially since the living must be cared for first. If the trees and plants need attention or if the shelters for the animals need attention, that must be done before the house. In an ideal world you may be able to keep your bales perfect, but I don't live there.

There is another news source from BBI which headlines each new E85 pump that opens for the public and that number grows weekly. Also the new cars for 2005 will feature many ethanol compatible models from economy models to luxury vehicles and work trucks. And you are correct; government is a major factor in helping a multimillion dollar facility become profitable. However, at the last International Fuel Ethanol Workshop, the statistics showed that if we continue to rely on corn as a mainstay for fuel ethanol, we will not satisfy the fuel additive potential much less change to a primarily biofuel/ethanol alternative. And so the government is now pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into things like hull-less barley--a few years back it was sweet potatoes. The real innovation comes with cellulosic processing. This is and will remain the way of the future. Researchers have been working toward advanced yeast propagation and now the emphasis is on enzyme variation. The point is that it is possible to use any and all cellulose-based biomass as a fuel ethanol feedstock. RIGHT NOW! We do not have to follow the previous expensive processing methods of changing a food (corn) into ethanol via a beverage quality technology. The processing can be altered to produce ethanol faster and less expensively, by smaller groups, for local fuel use and also produce an excess to network into sales cooperatives--right where you live--anywhere USA that has biomass growth potential. I think I already mentioned that a neighbor made one gallon of ethanol from five cactus leaf pads. Do you know that that means? It means that land growth potential just doubled. Our next fuel ethanol start-up will be wood-chip and waste based. We plan on over a million gallons a year. This is a small, community-based coalition. Another facility we are helping in South Texas will only produce 30,000 gallons a year in the beginning and it will be done less expensively than the major producers. When you read that the farmers own the ethanol coops, you must realize that agribusiness caters to the industrial farmer more than the rural farmer with several hundred acres. There are crops that can produce more ethanol per acre with multiple annual harvests, and not require the expense associated with growing corn. My associate's research on cattail rhizomes proved a capacity of over 1000 gallons per acre from the roots alone. Now our new processing technology will give an even higher yield. Without the sale of the cake--wet or dry and other byproducts, the profits for corn ethanol production would not be good enough to be competitive. Also, without the government subsidies, tax breaks, and other incentives, it could not compete as an alternative fuel. This must change. And it can. And it will... as soon as small, rural economic development takes hold and cooperatives process biofuels through cellulosic breakdown. When coalitions from grassroots locations form small coops to take care of their own fuel needs, it will be a start. It doesn't require a minimum of four and a half million dollars to start an ethanol production plant like industry and government want us to believe. If you would like to discuss this off list or if you are truly interested in setting up a coalition in the United States, we can help. Each individual site is different. The concept could also work in foreign countries, but I'm not familiar with the land ownership, politics, and restrictions from other places, so I can't speak about other countries.

Kirk McLoren sent me this a while back: Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer waht oredr the ltteers of a wrod are in, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Could you read that? Midori just read it without any difficulty at all, and she's Japanese, not a native-English speaker. She thought it was very funny. So do I. So much for spelling, eh? No need. This is why anagrams can be so interesting. But I should help you with this: TANSTAAFL - There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. And somewhere out there Robert A.

It is rated at 85 hp. The van itself weighs 2 tons, and can take up to 12 people. It usually spits out more smoke when loaded. Anyway, the smoke isn't too serious, I was just thinking of lessening the waste, opitmising and maby gaining a little performance. zx zx zx zx zx zx if your engine has aa tachometerr, find hwat is the optaimum operationing rpm and drive by your tach instead of your speedometer,,, keep the engine spun up, not orverrevved tho, and your performance will increase,, buck _ Is your PC infected?

[Biofuel] Creating a cool room @@
this is buck,, read belowww, Greetings Heidi, I do understand straw bale very well, did a course on it years ago now in Arizona with the Out on a bale, by mail people. Unfortunately, straw bale is not a good building material for my area. I would have to truck bales in from well over a 100 miles away. My humidity is over 80% most of the year. We tested a rice straw bale on the property, it disintegrated in a single season, just as if it were hay. We have many insects here that just eat it and I do not allow chemicals on the property. Straw bale is a wonderful building material if you live in the right climate.
