Re: [biofuel] Accusorb beads- fraud?

Hello Keith, Long time, no communicate. I have been quite busy with my project. I tried a couple of times to e-mail but had some Yahoo problems followed by a worm. Anyway, My processor is completed if not totally debugged. I will send you some pictures off-list. I use the Acusorb beads. I will

Re: [biofuel] Questions Speed-up washing biodiesel

Kevin, I guess for the 6%-8% loss in the single-stage process, I'm not sure I see the value in the Two Stage acid process as your paying for the loss with time, plus additional energy to reheat and mix. Your thoughts? Just what are you doing with that 6% -8% loss? Would you flush 6-8% of

[biofuel] Isolating Reactor Pump Benefits

G'day. I processed a 40 liter batch using my newly completed (minus methanol recovery condenser) reactor based upon the Appleseed design, http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_processor8.html. I added isolation of the reactor pump by installing a couple extra valves, one right after the exit

Re: [biofuel] DEUTERIUM: Philippines' Economic Solutions

To be polite, this is total crap, a variation on the old 'free energy from the hydrogen in water' scam. Besides being very rare and difficult to extract, deuterium electolyses, burns and in short has exactly the same chemical properties as ordinary hydrogen. Which is why it is hard to isolate.

Hello Robert luis Thank you for your observation.Unfortunately ,we live in a very strange world.I agree with you that Brazil is strange and different than U.S.A needs investment in education and intelligent people.The present Brazil is changing slowly especially the area

Re: [biofuel] DEUTERIUM: Philippines' Economic Solutions

I agree. A tall tale for sure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_water Heavy water is dideuterium oxide, or D2O or 2H2O. It is chemically the same as normal water, H2O, but the hydrogen atoms are of the heavy isotope deuterium, in which the nucleus contains a neutron in addition to the proton

[biofuel] Stupid measuring question

I need to measure a barrel that I have so I can mark the 110 L and 220L levels. What do you advise? The precision lab equipment that is graded up to 800ml. I suppose 100 cups wont do the trick, Probably filling a 5L water bottle precisely then using that 20 times might be a good idea??

[biofuel] What can I use in my BD processor to make a cone inside the barrel

I have found some plastic barrels, unfortunately I cant cut or melt them to make them bottom drainable. What can I use to form a kind of cone inside the barrel? I think epoxy would work but that might be a little expensive. Would gips work? Or hardening clay??? Thanks Teoman

Re: [biofuel] Stupid measuring question

Teoman, I need to measure a barrel that I have so I can mark the 110 L and 220L levels. What do you advise? Calibrate your 5L water bottle by the specific gravity of H2O, then use that to calibrate your drum. Todd Swearingen - Original Message - From: Teoman Naskali [EMAIL

Re: [biofuel] What can I use in my BD processor to make a cone inside the barrel

Teoman, I have found some plastic barrels, unfortunately I cant cut or melt them to make them bottom drainable. Set the drum on a stand that is tall enough to sit a 5 gallon bucket/carboy underneath. (It doesn't have to be that tall if you're using pumps.) Make the table that the drum sets on

RE: [biofuel] DEUTERIUM: Philippines' Economic Solutions

I don't mean to be suspicious but I wonder why the name of the proponent was witheld? Another tall tale? If I remember it correctly, deuterium is NOT water without oxygen. Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen. A hydrogen atom would normally have a proton and an electron only. Deuterium on the
