Ryan, I was probably the person you needed. I have done extensive research into
biodiesel and am currently working on infrastructure to make it as available as
petrodiesel. I have read thousands of web pages, researched hundreds of sites
and discovered a formula which reduces the cost of

Hi Turbo
Think you should read Kens post again.
Approx 12-14% of the volume of oil will be the amount of methanol used in
the reaction. this displaces ABOUT the same volume of glycerine.
If your oil is new and clean with low FFA's then if you add 20% of the
volume of oil as methoxide you will get
I'm thinking of using potassium hydroxide as catalyst instead of
caustic soda in the hope that it may be easier to mix with the
methanol. Does anyone know how it comes? I'm hoping it isn't big
tough crystals! Also does it suck up water if it's left exposed to
air?
Mine comes as flakes -- thin
The Revenoor Co., www.revenoor.com, makes all copper

Hope that helps

the chemical structure itself has something to do with the various

I hope I don't confuse
What would be the drawbacks of using a detergent or a solvent to reduce the
viscosity of SVO before either using it straight or heating to lower it
further. Normal deisel and petrol have detergents in them dont they?

Unfortunately copper isn't recommended for biodiesel - preferably all
components would be 316 stainless steel. What I am looking for is an
off-the-shelf item that would serve the purpose for in-line vacuum
distillation for methanol recovery.

heating reduces the viscosity to acceptable levels. using cold oil is bad
for a few different reasons beyond viscosity reasons.

Hello I dont understand , is this a area for bio fuel , or for points of

I am truely interested in any information that will help me make fuel , the
rest is just babel ??

indeed part of that subject,
