Re: [Biofuel] New question on oil seed crops and ley farming

Hi Andres, Snip I've lived here since 1998. I've seen one fairly bad drought. The rest of the time the moisture is pretty much what I would expect. I've giving some thought about putting a cistern in to have a couple of months worth of water in storage. The groundwater here is real good once

[Biofuel] New question on oil seed crops and ley farming

Hi Keith and all, You mentioned in a previous thread that you liked castor beans as an oil seed crop. That makes some sense given yields and iodine numbers but if one is attempting an animal/oil seed mix then castor beans aren't edible are they? Perhaps I read something wrong on JTF.I

Re: [Biofuel] Corporations are ready to act on global warming but...

Hi All, In shocked, shocked to hear that the market hasn´t taken care of this problem already.So some in industry are begging for regulations so they can compete. That high pitched whine is so hard on my ears,please give us laws because we can´t do things for ourselves. Hard driving captains

[Biofuel] There's no proof of global warming

Hi All, Yeah, right. Someone ought to tell Mr. Limbaugh that Rita was a tropical storm two days ago. It's entered the Gulf and is now at Catagory 2. It's heading west now and will probably increase in ferocity in the next 24-36 hours. The water temperaturee in the gulf is still above 30C.

Re: [Biofuel] Fuel can be made from dead cats

Hi All, This reminds me of a thought I forgot to write down weeks ago. IfBioD made from french fry oil smells like French fries what does BioD made from Castor oil smell like? Tom Irwin From: Zeke Yewdall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.orgSent: Thu, 15 Sep 2005 17:44

Re: [Biofuel] Biodiesel

Hi Ed, I think standard coffee filters are 10 micron. I have filters in the lab that filter down to 1.22 microns and others for sterilizing media that are .22 microns so it would not surprise me about automotive filters or restaurant filters. Tom Irwin From: Ed Hall [mailto:[EMAIL

environment, I don't think it really addresses shelf life issues of BioD. I'm not planning to add water to my fuel tanks any time soon.
