Fair go Pedro, you want all my secrets.
I recently described a process to convert the foots from a palm oil
refinery to good quality bio. The foots are the result of taking the
entire waste stream, as soap stock, and performing an acidulation
process. This results in a lot of phospholipids and

Ha, ha. Not for me sure, because I belong to a non-profit
Thyanks Todd I thought as much.Is there a process to bring down the specific
gravity for biodiesel.For example cutting it with ethanol perhaps.

I have tried my first batch of biodiesel in a flat wick style lamp but as
Todd guessed it just burnt the wick but it did not go out just wasnt very
bright.

Tom Ed,
Bio-D has too high a specific gravity to wick any farther than perhaps 1.5
in height. When the fuel level reaches this distance below the combustion
point, the wick begins to burn and the lamp extinguishes itself.
This is why I was asking about Argand lamps last week. They were

tight fit in the piston to prevent turning there)
you can use the more modern 40-1 mix. there has been a very steady
improvement in lube oils over the last 30 years.

Hi All,
Beware
Tom,
We've tried blends of biodiesel with distillate lamp oil and found the
result to be the same as with straight biodiesel - insufficient wicking
properties.
Have not tried any other dilutants as of yet.
Biodiesel will dissolve in large amounts of methanol. It might do the same
with ethanol.
Mine has a hardened steel pin which fits tight enough in the aluminum
piston so that it doesn't turn. But there are needle bearings in the
small end of the connecting rod.

I would think you should be able to find a Rayo lamp in an antique store
fairly easily if you want to try the Argand style lamp. It has the circular
wick and the hollow tube running down thru the fuel bowl, preheating the fuel
and providing more oxygen. Many of them have been converted to

Hi Todd and All,
Needing a heater for this winter would a
multi-wick floating on WVO with a 1/2 inch rise work?
Kind of like the VO floating candles but with larger
wicks.
Thanks,

Beware about breathing the fumes of castor
