Re: [Biofuel] Biodiesel Diesel and BD mix cloudy??
Stephan, I'm experiencing the same, see my questions of last year. What is happening is that one or more component(s) don't dissolve in the Diesel Fuel. Most likely these are Mono- Di- or TriGlycerides. You can do three things to make It clear again; 1. Filter the mixture using Seitz T1000 filtration boards 2. Add about 1% ISO-Butanol 3. Heat to approx. 25 ¡C With kind regards, Jan Lieuwe Bolding The Netherlands - Original Message - From: stephan torak [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Biofuel [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2005 8:02 PM Subject: [Biofuel] Biodiesel Diesel and BD mix cloudy?? Hi all I didn't investigate this any further yet, but I recently completed a new filter unit (1micron) for the BD setup and the result is BD that really sparkles. I put some into a glass (just to enjoy the looks of it, I'm not drinking it ...yet)Since I had it in a jar I went and got some petrodiesel put it in another jar (just to see if it was as sparkly as the BD, yes, it was.) So I mixed them together ...and I got a somewhat cloudy result , well look at that, I thought.

I did a 50%, 33%, and a 20% blend. At -20c the 50% got thick but didn't solidify or sepparate, and the other two were ok. Are these results consistant with what is expected from a good home brew fuel? Dunno about blends (we never use them), but you could try putting some of your homebrew in a jar in the freezer with a thermometer in the jar, check it every few minutes to see what temp it goes cloudy and gels. There's a test like that here: http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_winter.html Biodiesel in winter: Journey to Forever We've used Wintron X30 pour-point depressant, but we only used it once this winter, and that's long gone, none left in the tank now (though we do have more). It's been cold a lot, but we haven't had any problems. The TownAce splutters and hiccups a little on starting, but start it does, first kick, and it quickly settles down. Hm... there's different ideas on the list of what's cold, I know: here it seldom gets worse (lower) than about -12 deg C or so (10.5 deg F), and that's rare. Right now it's -7 deg C, and can drop to -10 or so; more often the nighttime temps are about 0 to -5. But I've seen messages in autumn from folks in San Francisco panicking when it gets below 40 deg F (4.5 deg C), still well above freezing, and their biodiesel starts to gel, which I don't understand. Ours is good to -5 deg C (23 deg F), and it seems even lower, and it's nothing special, we didn't even get rid of the saturated fats in the WVO for winter fuel, as we probably should have. So I don't know what they're making in San Francisco.

[Biofuel] Cloudy Biodiesel ZZ zz
Ken, If you read my original question you will see the ceramic-filter is not in the proces of making BioDiesel. I have seen clear Bio-Diesel from the Acid -Base proces getting cloudy(hazy) when I mix It with regular Diesel when I want to produce B20 or higher. When I heat It to approx 40 ¡C or filtrate with Seitz K1000 filtrationplates It becomes clear again. I have determined the water-content of the BD with a Karl Fisher titrator to be approx. 0.3%. My theory is that a component of the BD is not solluable in regular Diesel and by mixing them can be filtered out, because by adding more BD It gets cloudy again and by adding more regular Diesel It stays clear. Can someone confirm this theory?
