[biofuel] 2 stages... what if? (new method?)

2002-05-01 Thread Christian
I was reading Alek«s 2 stage method today, when it came upon me that maybe, to a certain degree, we could boost efficiency a little with a related method. It«s nothing out of this world, but still. Has anyone ever watched when stirring a solution with undissolved particles still in it, that
