Re: [biofuel] No more French fry WVO?

2002-06-30 Thread Christian

I received some ordinary post mail from Mr. Hendrik Stein  G. Knothe
concerning various emission tests by  Prof. Krahl in Germany. They reported
traceo of acrolein and aldehides in emissions.

The issue of acrolein was somewhat treated (in part by me) some weeks ago.

Best wishes,

Christian

  WHO hosts urgent meeting on acrylamide in food

 Permit me to carry the thought process a wee tad further for us
 common laypersons.

 Anyone ever given much thought to the decay product of glycerin
 under conditions of inadequate combustion? Oddly enough it's call
 acrolein - rather toxic to living things, especially breathing
 things,  at least according to every MSDS sheet I've read.

 So take that decay consideration, slap a bunch of potato shreds
 in a high temp tri-glyceride bath, or bake a grain product with a
 high oil content, and what might you think you'll get? Perhaps
 acrilomide?

 Glycerin, in the form of triglycerides, exposed to semi-high
 temps of frying and baking...~350* Fahrenheit.

 But then there is this statement:

 The Swedish researchers said that fried, oven-baked, and
 deep-fried potato and cereal products may contain high levels of
 acrylamide. The same results were not found in boiled products.

 A bit odd that water boils at 212* Fahrenheit, ~140* lower and a
 considerably less destructive temp range than baking or frying.

 Makes one wonder if there won't be a rush in the appliance and
 food processing markets for products that can cook foods in the
 temperature range of boiling, rather than frying and baking.

 Also makes one wonder if there won't be a rush for oils that are
 100% FFAs, rather than a blend of tri-glycerides and FFAs. That
 would sure throw a kink in biodiesel manufacture when using waste
 restaurant oils. It would force every shadetree biodieseler to
 move towards high pressure esterification, rather than STP
 transesterification.

 It would also put some pressure on the animal feed and rendering
 industries to move away from using reprocessed WVOs as
 protein/energy additives to feed. Would be a shame to kill the
 AKC registered family pet simply by feeding it Puppy Chow.

Abstract:
Diesel engine exhaust particles (DEP) contribute substantially to 
ambient air pollution. They cause acute and chronic adverse health 
effects in humans. Biodiesel (rapeseed oil methyl ester, RME) is used 
as a green fuel in several countries. For a preliminary assessment 
of environmental and health effects of RME, the 
particulate-associated emissions from the DEP of RME and common 
fossil diesel fuel (DF) and their in vitro cytotoxic and mutagenic 
effects were compared. A test tractor was fuelled with RME and DF and 
driven in a European standard test cycle (ECE R49) on an engine 
dynamometer. Particle numbers and size distributions of the exhausts 
were determined at the load modes idling and rated power. 
Filter-sampled particles were extracted and their cytotoxic 
properties tested using the neutral red assay, Mutagenicity was 
tested using the Salmonella typhimurium/microsome assay. Despite 
higher total particle emissions, solid particulate matter (soot) in 
the emissions from RME was lower than in the emissions from DF. While 
the size distributions and the numbers of emitted particles at rated 
power were nearly identical for the two fuels, at idling DF 
emitted substantially higher numbers of smaller particles than RME. 
The RME extracts caused fourfold stronger toxic effects on mouse 
fibroblasts at idling' but not at rated power than DF extracts. 
The extracts at both load modes were significantly mutagenic in TA98 
and TA100. However, extracts of DF showed a fourfold higher mutagenic 
effect in TA98 land twofold in TA100) than extracts of RME. These 
results indicate benefits as well as disadvantages for humans and the 
environment from the use of RME as a fuel for tractors. The lower 
mutagenic potency of DEP from RME compared to DEP from DF is probably 
due to lower emissions of polycyclic aromatic compounds. The higher 
toxicity is probably caused by carbonyl compounds and unburned fuel, 
and reduces the benefits of the lower emissions of solid particulate 
matter and mutagens from RME.
