Wetzel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2001 8:35 AM To: Bio Fuels at Yahoogroups.com Subject: [biofuel] Coconut Oil etc. Hello All, Am researching the making bio-diesel from coconut oil with a fairly low tech small scale (possibly community based process in PNG) where the coconut flesh is first finely grated, then mixed with the juice, then cold pressed to produce an emulsion. This is then heated (not boiled) to separate out the oil which is then decanted off, filtered, and trans-esterified. Am wondering whether the remaining liquid would have sufficient carbohydrate content for it to be used as feedstock for ethanol production. Anyone with ideas/knowledge on the subject. Comments would be extremely welcome. Hanns Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Please do NOT send "unsubscribe" messages to the list address.
