Re: [Biofuel] Alternative to Toxic Mold Compounds?
yes you can use dental impression compound called alginate it makes perfect molds and ive used it extensivelyh in making latex molds for fiberglass parts.. its relatively cheap absolutly safe and makes perfect impressions you can get it at any dental supply houses youll love it but you can onml;y make a few copies and if you dont let it dry out you can make quite a few... marc ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/

Re: [Biofuel] Anyone working with algae out there?
hi, while algae is a great carbon sink (bioremediator) I would first consider running the chicken manure through a methane digestor if it isnt too full of straw or other cellulose material. which can prove problematical... after running the manure through the digestor ,then the effluent can be used for algae propagation. I want to emphasise that oil from algae production is new ground, and there are still problems to be solved as to extraction methods ,in addition selecting the ideal algae which will become the workhorse still is up in the air. something which we will finally determine this spring, also, algae is sensitive to variable climatic conditions and need a stable and controlled environment for maximum yield, that is why we advocate enclosed pond systems over open ponds, particularly if one is to attempt this in northern climes or areas like oklahoma which are reather infamous for being subject to violent weather events. the combination of methane production and algae production lend themselves to a better chance of success due to the value added products that result which helps hedge ones bet when entering new ground.

Re: [Biofuel] Anyone working with algae out there?
we have been working with algae for thirty years, first in mexico and then here in Tennessee, we have a website... just go to ecogenics on google or other servers .you can see someof our algae production systems that have been rather successfull, you can also follow some threads on Biodiesel now look in the forums , particularly one titled , can oil producing algae be grown at homea question which I answered in the affirmative and for which I was derided by some dilletantes on that list. there is some good data out there, but most are reluctant to share more than general information. and now so am I.. we have a manual on how to produce algae and a vidio tape that shows one of our ponds from construction to production of algae and tilapia fish and also shows our distillery in operation. the manual teaches how to grow algae.. this is a must before you grow oil producing algae soon we will be issueing a second manual on oil production from algae it will however be available only to those who have read the first manual or have attended our hands on seminars on the subject...Ecogenics is a research and development organisation that has adressed most forms of alternative energy. we do not talk about anything that we havent built.. so we feel a certain amount of pride and cionfidence that we are not blowing smoke up peoples derrieres. but that does not shield us from having some rather nasty derisions cast at us.all i can say about that is people who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music.

Re: [Biofuel] Forget the Tiger, put some Mushrooms in your Tank
yes.. also aspergillis niger and and trichoderma viridi , tricodermareesi, and thaluria terrestria do a good job of breaking down cellulose there are many enzymes that occurr in nature that rot wood many are classified as fungi. there is a study underway using the digestive enzymes of termites. there is a monograph I wrote titled enzymatic hydrolysis of mixed cellulostic waste which I wrote for the southern hardwoods associeation in the U.S. it is included in our alcohol fuel manual.
