Hello,
is there someone at the Sunshine Coast in Australia who produces
Biodiesel? I would like to get in touch.
Kind regards

Thanks for the link, but it still leaves the question of what is the
chemical change that is happening. Does anyone know if it is simply
taking on water?

The simpler transesterification is a two step process as well, the

the wash that leaves high quality glycerine and the second step turns

Several and all have very different meanings. My note to Phillip

It takes a very efficient machine to be more efficient

I have no idea.
My personal opinion?I think that trying to tap the jet stream is not
feasible, due to the fact that the jet stream is to un-predictable.The
cost of building any one device, able to tap 300+ mph winds, are going to be
astronomical, and since the jet stream moves about (

It's not a perpetual motion machine (the solar plane). It consumes solar
