[biofuel] Re: Methanol is DEADLY!
Hi Greg Thanks for the response, seems we're all sorted now. (Except Jimmy Jones maybe!) snip We'd all love to know about an effective backyard methanol production technique. Using dino-source methanol spoils it for many of us - it means our beautiful clean biodiesel isn't quite as clean as we'd like, and using ethanol instead has its problems. D-I-Y bio-methanol would be excellent. I think that I found a DIY bio methanol, but all I have is 2 1/2 pages with just an overview, that I am stuck on. Try contacting HomePower? If it is indeed HomePower that published it. It takes high temeperatures and high pressures, eh? Good luck!
