Good Information from everyone, thank you. As this "Oil" is going to be used to fuel power source generators we won't be too concerned about the edible aspects of the resulting extraction....only the positive characteristics of the oil for fuel. Have several good sources for extraction equipment from India and other countries but nothing much for N. America. Are there any reasonably priced outlets in our regions that anyone knows of? 1500-2000 GPD production levels; but could be more if we had too. Again, thank you. Dave
