So if we use a plant to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and that plant
makes oil that we then burn and release CO2 to the atmosphere how is
that supposed to reduce atmospheric CO2?

Hey Canadian biofuelers;
Canadian Tire has a cool gadget on sale this week. It is an energy meter
which resembles a wall wart and plugs into a 120 VAC receptacle. You can
then plug in any 120 VAC appliance and measure volts, amps, watts and KW
hours over a period of time, up to 1800 watts. It
only in that the process in theory is carbon neutral, and replaces
fossil fuel which is carbon positive.
first we stop increasing the CO2...

Hello to all,
Todd S. recently made the
point that,it would be better, environmentally, to use
B-75,and share
the other 25% with someone else, rather than have
one person going with B-100. Using the same volume of BD, having one B-75 and
one B-25 reduces exhaust emissions more than one
Hello All,
I live in the northeastern
part of the US. Winters are cold. Diesel cars are rare, oil heat is common. I
would appreciate comments on the following plan:
An individualhas the
desire to share some of his/her homebrewed BD with a person/family in need of
it. This person offers
This is a great device. I prefer it to the Kill-A-Watt.
The unit at Canadian Tire includes a battery, so it does not lose its
memory in the event of a power glitch. It also takes note of the amount
of time that the monitored device is actually running instead of elapsed
time - very handy
Burning biofuels does not reduce the levels of atmospheric CO2, but it does not add CO2 levels. This is refered to as Carbon neutral fuels. Basically plants take CO2 from the air, they are then converted into a carbon based fuel (alcohol or carbon monoxide and hydrogen) in which combustion yields
Hi all;
I keep hearing about the cleansing effect of BD and how it clogs fuel
filters. Tom even mentioned it in his post about sharing biodiesel as
heating oil. I bought a year 2000 Golf TDI which had 225,000 km on it
with petroleum. Last summer I ran it on blends from B05 to B75 and over
I traded my old car in for a pretty economical turbo diesel which,
although it isn't running on BD yet, it will be once I get past the
experimenting stage and on to bigger batches. My neighbour is taking a
keen and reasoned interest in my endeavours and suggests his next vehicle
will be diesel so
Joe,
I have a similar story w. the diesel car I bought (216,000
mi/348,000Km). I have spare fuel filters in the trunk along w the necessary
tools. I have changed the filters, but more as a matter of routine
maintenance; never had a clogged filter. I run my car on B-100 and drop to
B-70
Hey Joe Do ya think it was run on BD prior to you getting it? Maybe it's already clean. RoyJoe Street [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all;I keep hearing about the cleansing effect of BD and how it clogs fuel filters. Tom even mentioned it in his post about sharing biodiesel as heating oil. I
No I bought it privately and talked to the original single owner, have
all the service records too. Maybe we just have good filters in our
service stations?/ dunno. Maybe it just takes more time??

Hey, maybe you're just lucky. Mine clogged within 500 miles of switching to biodiesel, and the clogging was pretty sudden -- within 15 miles it pretty much stopped. But then again, mine was also a 20 year old truck, which had just sat for about 5 years since it had last run -- so that tank had
The plants require co2 for all of their growth, stem, seeds, leaves, roots
and we only use a portion of the plant for making fuels. Wouldn't that left
over part of the plant be using more co2 then is put out by the burning of
the oil?

Mine clogged and shut me down in less than 50 miles. You may have a
gotten lucky so far or your filter may be breached and it is allowing it
through? small chance but why not just change it and be happy.
