Oil was first used for lamps and steam boilers. The diesel oil is
a by product of the refining process to get gasoline and was
used as for lamps, cleaning and heating. A cleaner version of
diesel is used for dry cleaning. I do not remember the amount
of different products that you get from crude,
Keith,
I am not arguing, because it is more complex and do not want
to argue it. I do think that this comment, even as it is referred to a
third person, should not have been done. To leave such a comment,
without mention how simple and utterly stupid it is, is wrong. Maybe
I should have said
Håkan, it is obvious that no patent or manufacturing lisence will last for
one houndrad years, espcecially considering the development of the diesel
engine. But Scania is the inheritar of the original diesel engine. However,
it is not flattering for us Swedes to be so historically involved and
No I do not have a connection to Atlas Copco, but I know a little something
about Rudolf Diesel.

Thank you for the earlier reply.
I don't suppose you would know if the following is correct or not.
Australia had the maximum grant to any inventor set at AUD10,000. This was
the maximum grant to enable development of an inventors idea.
From memory the Swedes had a department that would
Before Sweden´s entry into the EC, the system was built upon shared risks.
It could be very difficult to have grants from the official funds. The
first condition was almost always that your bank should be involved. Then
maybe, you could have some grants - anways smaller than 50% of the project

Jan,
You are right about the time before EC, I have personal experiences
from this. When we needed the help it was very difficult to get it and
we could not pursue it. Once when we were a proven success, they
asked us and was upset when we said that we did not need any help
from them. I must say
Håkan,
this is a terribly low performance for any nation which claims supporting
entrepreneurs. And think of all the people busy with not supporting what
they are suppose to support!
What is the point of such a system and such a mentality ?

MIT is researching using capacitors to make batteries that can be
charged in seconds, have high capacity (currently 60 Wh/kg, 10 times
DLC and half of Li-Ion batteries) and last nearly forever by adding
nanotubes to the electrodes to increase surface area and hence charge
capacity. They are

For us it turned out very good anyway. We sold

That makes a lot more sense.

What I did is the same idea but instead of blades stacked with thier
edges facing you picture needles on a nano scale. Blades are effective
on one axis. Needles on two axes.

Fresh tallow or used tallow? If it's used tallow did you titrate it
or just use the bracket tests?

In that case use the standard amount of lye, there's no need to do
bracketing tests.
Since you're getting strange results, what else are you doing that
could be wrong? How did you process the tests? What temperature? How
did you agitate it? For how long? How did
