Hello Keith As I understand it Methanol can be produced from CO and Hydrogen. This requires pressure beyond my abilities and a catalist that I assume would be expensive and hard to get. I'm not into destructive distillation. If methanol could be fermented then this would be a far simplier method. For uses it could be a fuel or most likely for producing biodiesel. The volume that I would be limited to producing would limit my methanol to biodiesel production only. I can't help but feel that the need for large volumes of biodiesel are in our future. If Bush can't do anything else he sure can piss off the Arabs. They as we all know have a very solid choke hold on us. The more of this kind of stuff I know the better. Would really love to do it myself! And saving a few dollars would just be gravey to me as well. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Buy Stock for $4. No Minimums.
