This has to do with whether to use NaOH or KOH as your
catalyst-of-choice. That's generally said to be KOH, because you end
up with a useful potassium fertilizer as a by-product, whereas with
NaOH you're left with a useless salt. But it's not that simple. Sorry
to say.

A lot of non-rechargeable dry cells can be recharged. I do it all the
time. In fact, I used to go around on the designated days when dry cells
could be put out in the trash and collect dead dry cells, recharge and
use them. But now I have more dry cells than I can use . . .

You say a lot of dry cells are rechargeable, how can I tell the difference
between those that can be recharged and those that should be left in the
trash? I often see dry cells in the trash and think what a waste, I'd be
great to reuse them. Reading the label (on the batteries) leaves me with the

The short answer is : possibly!
Ca(OH)2 and Mg(OH)2 are both essentially insoluble in alcohols,
so they fall into the realm of so-called solid catalysts. Biodiesel

Australia has the lowest before-tax petroleum fuels prices in
the developed world. The current diesel fuel excise is $0.38143 per
litre (Australian currency). At SAFF we are retailing B100 (no
excise) at the same price as petroleum diesel, soon we will be
retailing it 5 to 10 Australian cents
