Hi Rafal,
If it is virgin oil from the supermarket, you should not worry about water.
I had the same problem in my early batches, and I think it is the lye.
do some additional test batches with more and more lye.
This eay you have an idea and a feel for the process.
What you should look for is a

them; the ULSD will allow the use.

Temp and agitation also sound good.
If there is water in the methanol you will make more soap

Hello Emre, Rafal et al.
I have to say that I partially disagree with some of your statements. The
limit of FFA for a flawless trans-esterification is drawn at 5mg KOH/g of
oil. Any value above will demand pre-treatment of the oil. It is always
important to check the water content, which should be
Hi Scott;
I notice my reactor drops a few degrees during the reaction too. I
suspect this is due to that addition of methoxide which does warm a bit
but is cooler than the reactor temperature for sure (but I have not
bothered to do the heat calculations). Some reactions are endothermic
Strange, isn't it?
One possible explanation might be that the people in the Bush
administration don't care about the thoughts of their allies,
about the Palestinian problem, or about human suffering in any
other area, or about the interests of the American people.
Perhaps they are only
Jan,
With well-deserved respect to you
Rafal's oil titrated to .925 - 1.0 mgKOH/g of oil. This is far below
the 5mgKOH/L of oil that you mention as the limit of FFA for flawless a
trans-esterification. It is, however, a significant enough amount that, if
excluded, could contribute
Jan;
Thank you very much for that tidbit of information. 0.5% is that by
weight or volume? I use heat and vacuum to dry my oil prior to the
process and I regulary can remove 1% v/v water from oil that looks very
clear and has no liquid water at the bottom. On occasion I have been

Yeah, researching the drive systems more, it seems that the Prius system, because it is capable of running from electric alone, could be used this way, whereas the Insight, having the motor just assisting the gasoline motor in accelerating and allowing a smaller engine, can't run on electric
I have no clue what the effects are or any other little secrets used to make
it more efficient. I would guess that bio-diesel does not cause a problem,
or that the converters for diesel are different.

down let it settle for the 12 to 24 hours the glycerin will drain out into a

No,
there is no need for additional air as diesel exhaust is oxidizing under all
conditions. Most of the flow throughconverters are of the type that
are extremely efficient at removing hydrocarbons, including the many
hydrocarbons that are adsorbed onto the particulate. There is a
