SVO versus biodiesel is a pseudo argument that should not exist. It
creates a false competitive situation between two good things and
distracts from the real issues on how we can minimize the use of fossil
Hi all,
I find it difficult to embrace any SVO technology. That is for many reasons,
but the most outstanding is the high boiling point of SVO:s. Canola
vaporizes completely at no less than 650-700oC, which is far too high for
modern diesel engines which have a limit of acceptance at approx
Hi Jan
I agree with you.
The ACREVO study found that veg-oil must be heated to 150 deg C (302 deg
F) to achieve the same viscosity and fuel performance as petro-diesel:
Atomisation tests showed that at 150 deg C the performance of the
rapeseed oil is comparable with that of the diesel oil.
Jan,
SVO having a high boiling point doesn't mean it
can't be used instead of dinodiesel
in a diesel car, because, ...
normal Diesel fuel is also completely evaporated before combustion.
What you need is a fine mist, not evaporated fuel in a diesel motor.
Dino diesel has a boiling point, rather
