May I add my two cents, too?
Here we reach the limit of what could be done without proper analysis of our
products = homemade biodiesel. To clarify such subtleties like the
difference on what you call base/base and acid/base, you can not do without
giving that stuff to a laboratory who is
The current retail price including tax for
petro-diesel is 14 Baht/L (44Baht=1US$). The bulk
purchase price for coconut oil including transport is
now 11.50 Baht/L. From our campaign, it is most likely
that both 'biodiesel' and vegetable oil will be tax
exempted ! So...Camillo watch out for
Camillo,
That news about poor quality German biodiesel and VW is depressing
indeed. It's exactly what UK doesn't need. We want to be in
production as soon as possible after next April, but if even VW have
doubts we'll have even less chance of finding business investors.
Can we not persuade
Camillo, you seem to be suggesting that every batch should be tested
to PROVE it complies using gas chromatography, etc? Is it not
possible or practical to CONFIRM the a batch complies with more
simple cheap(er) tests rather than prove it complies with expensive
tests.

Hi Dave
You mentioned biodiesel you made with the normal base/base process,

Dear All,
One of my associates in Thailand is considering
setting up a batch biodiesel production using virgin
oil such as palm/coconut/caster oil as raw material.
The question is what would be the maximum size for the
batch reactor ? Can anyone recommend this ?

Ultra low sulphur diesel suffers from lack of two things - the lubricity of
the sulphur and also its ability to vulcanise any rubber components.
Ergo, when Europe went over to ULSD in 1993/95, all fuel components were
changed by all manufacturers to Viton or similar plastic.

Want to know why there are no GM diesel engines used in cars from the early
