[Biofuel] Deacidification

Re: [Biofuel] Deacidification

Ian, What are you deacidifying your oil with and how? Adding lye or similar caustic in the absence of methanol is a sure fire way to manufacture soap, just about the last thing you want if your eventual end product is going to be biodiesel. There is a method of making biodiesel where all

Hello Ian Hi Keith This is probably the best stuff avalable in my small town, as it is from a food shop renound for quality food. :-) It comes as a surprise to quite a lot of biodieselers when they start titrating restaurant oil and quickly find out which ones really produce quality food. 6ml
