Hi Bio-fuels biz group.
I am presently considering setting-up to make my own biodiesel and possibly
more for others to use.
Is there anyone else in the Brisbane or Ipswich area in Queensland
(Australia) presently making, using or selling Biodiesel?
Regards,
Lyle Chapman
G'day Lyle,
I'm in Hemmant in Brisbane. Considering setting up a still for my
own use, however would be easier to combine assets.
My ph # is 0401 410 511 or 3890 1716...

known in commerce as wood-spirit, being produced in the destructive

I don't agree with the disposal concept either, and i know what to do with
my glycerin, but,
what can I do with the bubble washing water?
i don't sleep happily knowing that i'm throwing all that stuff throught the
toilett
thanks

Typical Energy Content of Fossil and Biomass Fuels
Solid, Liquid and Gas
These are not uncommon in corn
I'm of the understanding that pressurized wood pellets are approximately twice
as dense. So the energy content would be approx. twice as much ??? And require
about half as much storage volume then cord wood. Corrections are welcomed.

Louis,
I don't know of any plans for SVO burning stoves but
we have been using a very simple wick type burner with
WVO to provide process heat for our WVO filtering and
I don't see why it could not be adapted to other
heating needs. I wonder if it might even work to burn
the glycerin byproduct
thanks Dana i'm just finnishing building my 4th
airplane. i built a wast oil furnace for my shop this summer.
it's working fine , but it needs electricity and compressed air
to work. i want to start experiment on a heater that uses
wvo that uses no power .

If I remember right, people used to burn lime (CaCO3) to make
quicklime (CaO). I suppose it would be expensive, but you could take
regular lime for adjusting pH in the soil and heat it so it
decomposes and releases the CO2 and becomes CaO (it might work if you
put a tin under the broiler of
I was just thinking that by treating the glycerin biproduct from
biodiesel which is sodium glycerate with hydrochloric acid (HCl)
you'd end up with a product that is a mixture of table salt and
glycerin which could possibly be fed to animals? We have a dairy
farm and feed the cows something
They burned limestone--CaCo3-- at about 1000 degrees and released the CO2
giving CaO, quicklime.
The lime in sacks is hydrated calcium oxide and I don't think a stove even
on cleaning cycle will dehydrate it.

Hey, it just occured to me that Calicum Carbide might work, you would have
to be careful, because it would react with water to produce Aceteline Gas
( it in its self usefull ), I don't know if it would react with the ethanol.
Shelled Corn ranges between 8,000 and 10,000 BTU/lb (depending on
quality) @15% moisture which is what it is stored at typically - that
converts into 180,000 BTU/bu.(avg.)
Wood pellets are typically (8000-9000 BTU/ lb.)
and online group sells wood pellets for $150/ton which would

Hello group
I've been asked to help a local town council to source equipment for
the measurement of particulate matter in the atmosphere. The test
equipment should be capable of measuring down to 2.5 micrometers or
smaller.
Would anyone happen to know a supplier?
Thanks in anticipation

Louis,
No Kidding! I fly a homebuilt too.
We looked at the waste oil furnaces
Keith,
What proportion of the methanol can you expect to recover using
distillation?

Does anyone know the BTU value for a ton of corn? How does that break down
for cost?

Where did you get this from? The page you show here doesn't even have corn
on it. It has corn cobs and stalks, not shelled corn.
