Re: RE: [biofuel] Automotive Alternator as a Windpower Resource
1987 and older Chevy Suburbans with 454 and the trailering package, had 100 Amp alternators, and external voltage regulators.

Re: Re: [biofuel] glycerin distillaton
Torr is about the same as mm. of Hg pressure. 760 is one atmosphere. If you set up a simple still it will distill at 290 C. Hook up a vacuum pump to lower the pressure and it will distill at lower temperatures. Ray. At 6/17/01 9:20:00 PM, you wrote: >Martin, >What is 760 torr etc?
