Teoman,
I use a filter of RACOR to seperate the water from the biofuel. When
nessesary you can run hot water trough the other site of the filter so the
wvo will be a little warm up.
Only wvo comes out at the other end of the filter, the water you must run
out at the bottem of the racor.

Hi,
As I remember, one of the problems with sodium and other borohydrides is
that boron is a relatively scarce element if considered for use on a
global scale. The main deposits are found in Turkey, Chile and Southern
California (owned in the major part by Rio Tinto, and 3 other smaller
Hi,
To help with you appointment...
The restaurant people will want a storage unit at the restaurant to put the

The size of the container should be for how often you want to pick up.

I'm behind you on what you said. I'm subversive too and deeply disturbed with
the current administration on many levels.
I have to say that I'm struggling with some of your comments though. The idea
that Bush (the teacher's husband) gives money to education doesn't seem

Ken - good points. I read and know that borates can be

for a chemical material balance. It would be
interesting to see energy input required vs energy
output, etc.

It is most common to use a load cell under your reactor vessel to
