Hi Ong
You can try separating beta carotene from the FAME by
distillation as an additional profit center.
Distillation decolorizes and gives you a clean product
leaving behind the carotene. CPO is a bit cheaper and
why not WVO? FYI CPO contains 500-to-3,000 ppm
carotenes, mostly beta.

brass, biodiesel, and air bubbles is a terrible combination. Brass
contains copper and zinc, both catalysts for oxidation (I think) of
biodiesel. Air bubbling is one way to speed up breakdown of biodiesel
as well, very quickly. go stainless.

It is finally official. The State of Alabama gave notice to the Mayor of

A copy of the narrative would be welcome here. Also, the cost analysis of

It would be interesting to see how fast that $50,000 dries up and what they

but one of changing the metal that the difuser is made from. Earlier
