[Biofuel] BioDiesel, Hello, animal fat
Hello, My name is Juan and I am new into Biodiesel World, and I was wondering whether biodiesel can be done from straight Animal fat, (no processing animal fat) Thank you Juan ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
Re: [Biofuel] BioDiesel, Hello, animal fat
Hello Juan, Yes, you can. You have to heat the fat so that it all liquifies. That happens at around 35-40C. Since processing temperature is 48-52C this really isn´t a problem. I would hot filter the material to remove any excess material that hasn´t melted. I have found that the ester does solidify at rather high temperatures (about 10-14C) so I only use it as a summer fuel in my area.

Hello Juan. You can use any fatty acid material assuming that it meets the basic quality requirements for biodiesel production.
