Nope. The scale is so small that the only way to reuse chemicals would be to
pretreat the WVO with the leftover glycrine+meth. But I still can«t separate
methanol at small scale. Furthemore, I can«t distill glycerin to sell it
(that represents a good income) because at the scale I«m talking of (330
lt/week) I can«t afford a vacuum distiller, evaporators or what have you.

Christian

Hi all.
SNIP
Buying the used oil already makes things expensive, and the
pretended
volumes of WVO aren«t big enough to reach wholesale prices for
methanol
(Retail methanol costs about 2.5 pesos/lt... imagine it were
equivalent to
2.5 dollars/lt, which it is not.. SNIP
If I had
saved dollars, that would roughly be 60 cents of a dollar per
liter). To
consider myself in business, at least for small scale production
(the
intention is to sell the BD... cheaper than dino diesel of course),
I need
to be very careful with costs, and that includes my source of water.

Christian does this cost calculation include reuse of the collectable
methanol?
