Hi Bob, Joe,
Thanks for clearing up the Nitrogen reactivity for me as well, I had
read about the nitric acid and just figured that there may exist some
ugly possibilities. I am no chemist either.
I am confused about what vacuum enhanced sparging is ? Do you just let
the vacuum suck down then
Hello Keith,
I just like to see something that has the possibilities of taking focus
away from the hydrogen myth and all the coal that goes with it. I
suppose that is highly optimistic but then who can say how it will all
go in 10 years?.

Hello all,
Everything you want to know about cooking oils and then some.

Bob,
Thanks for that, where are performance chemicals?, they are not
in my Yellow pages. As an aside, there is a guy selling 99.5% Methanol
in Manchester for £95 (205litres), which seems good. You have to pick
it up though, and he sounds a bit dodgy (collect from a place to be
advised) but st
Bob,
I have done a google search and found lots of 'performance
chemicals', From looking at the web sites I assume you mean the one in
Kent.

Hi Clive,
Try "Performance Chemicals Ltd" They will supply methanol from 25L up but
delivery is still a bit steep for small orders.
I am thinking of forming a buyers cooperative for small producers in the UK,
any interested parties please contact me.
Regards
Bob

vacuum under any conditions should not impact the biodiesel, nitrogen
gas shouldn't impact, even nitrogen, vacuum and heat wouldn't be a
problem. If you want to impress the folks at the next potluck, tell them
you're using vacuum enhanced sparging. ;->
My comment on forcing conditions was ju
Thanks for clearing that up Bob;
Now in regard to forcing conditions I have a question. I have been
daydreaming about ways to speed things up. One thing I know from my
experience with vacuum systems is in drying type applications you get a
lot further and faster by doing pump-purge cycles wi

simply said- NO -nitrogen gas will not be a reactant under these (or any

Hey Joe, I am. it's the 20 % oxygen doing the oxidation. Nitrogen is
unreactive under these conditions.

Good point. I'd also like to point out that I find pump washing very
effective and very quick to get to the homogeniety point too.

PS Helium is expensive! And so is Argon.
Andrew;
Be careful what you wish for. I have reactive ion etch equipment at my
disposal and have experience etching microfluidic channels.
Microfabrication is right smack in my domain and the university of
Waterloo is renowned for incubating and launching innovative ventures.
Hell the schoo
I assume that this only replaces the transesterification step, and you
would still have to wash to remove glycerin afterwards. Seems like
this would almost be a better technology for the very large plants,
because it turns a batch process into a contiuous process which is
what they have been hampe
Thomas,
That's 0.20 ml per liter of fuel to be washed. Adjust as needed to bring
the wash water to neutral, which means toy with it. Doing this in the
first wash will yield remarkable improvements in any subsequent wash.

Todd,
I've been sold on stir washing for months and recommend it to all
including my friend who is using compressed air.

Hi Andrew and the rest
An excellent idea, if we can get technology like this in Africa at a
cost effective price it will change the face of the world. I've also got
20 dollars for you guys.
