1 liter of water = 1000g divide by molecular wt of water 18 gives 55.6 moles
of water x 2 for 111 moles of H
1 liter of ethanol = 789.3 g divide by molecular wt of 46.07 = 17.1 mole of
ethanol x 6 for 103 moles of H per liter. adding ethanol lowers # of H /
liter.
1 liter of methanol = 791.4
I have a '82 Mercedes Benz 300d. I remember reading that you should advance
the timing with BD. how many degrees , has anyone done it on a 300d, How?

very cool
there should be a single inlet and 2 outlets the one of the two outlets is
from the center/top of solution ( when you spin you form a funnel the inside
has the less dense liquid) ant the other the outside /bottom.
you will be able to seperate water from oil and possible glycerine
The reaction works by replacing one alcohol with another
in Fats you have glycerol which has 3 alcohol groups which are attached to 3
fatty acids
when you react an alcohol with a acid you get an ester
it is call a transesterification because you substitute one alcohol for
another
since the
wow
3.5 g/liter is 0.0035kg/liter
0.35kg is 350 grams

if you ar having problems meausring lye because of humidity set up a large
clear bag and put your scale and lye inside. you can use coat hangers to
make a ridig frame to hold the plastic up. tape gloves through the side of
plastic bag (the new extra large zip locks shoudlwork well).
use and
I have been trying go cart shops, hardwares stores
does anyone know a source for methanol in San Jose, ca area.

is usually in
smaller pellets/flakes and should defintiely appear white. I got my last
batch from the soap company and according to the MSDS is is 99% pure and it
appears white.
I hope this helps,

I'm a chemist and have used pure NaOH and it is white.

I read somewhere that pure lye is not white
has anyone tried a liquid liquid centrifuge.
By continuously removing the dense gycerine you would drive the reaction
forward requireing less methanol (the whole pont around the two step
reaction)
please see

I think it would be possible to
do you have any links to NH Coop or Mike Briggs

methanol my biodegrade but into what?
if it degrades into methane that is a green house gas?

I'm a chemist.
Has any one written anything about the details of the chemistry in making
biodiesel.
Looks like you are doing a transesterification to replace glycerine with
methanol. This would drop the molecular wight and thus the viscosity.
adding a little bit of an surfactant (soap) would

I would be very interested in hearing peoples comments contrasting
diy plans
small conversion kits i.e. hot water heater or drum into reactor
small built systems ~$3k
as well as what are your favorite sites for information or sales of these
materials
I have looked at the past posts.
