Hello Tom, if your titration value is 1,9 , there is no need for additional treatment, since the acidic ions from the vinegar will be included in the titration value. However, you shoulddetermine the water content of the oil before processing it. A good value here is max 0,5%. Yes, you

content. ExxonMobile sells a nice kit called Mobil water test. The active chemical compound in this is calciumdihydride. It is a reliable method. Do not try to transesterify again until the water content is around 0,5%. And- watch out for any remaining detergents in the oil ! Jan Warnqvist AGERATEC AB

Hello. You are doing the right thing. But, remember that a high FFA content usually is managed with NaOH or KOH in excess or by a pre-staged acid transesterification. Water is not. Best regards Jan Warnqvist AGERATEC AB [EMAIL PROTECTED] + 46 554 201 89 +46 70 499 38 45 - Original Message

Hi John. In order to separate water from WVO by using a centrifuge, the most efficient way is to heat the water/WVO mix to 75-90oC and run it as a round circuit until the water content drops to a sufficiently low level. Best rgrds Jan Warnqvist AGERATEC AB [EMAIL PROTECTED] + 46 554 201 89 +46
