Greetings Friends,
I find myself in need of doing a little preaching today. Sorry, but for
me, this is the best way I
Some time ago I wrote about my mistake, to not boil off the water out of
wvo, so I finished up with a lump of soap, glop or whatever we can call it.
Alltogether it was 1000 liters. Now I decided to try to break the soap with
phosphoric acit (75%) and let it sit for several weeks. The soap was
I'm afraid not. The charcoal used in filtration is activated charcoal,
which is made by burning bone or similar material in an oxygen-deprived
environment. If you try to filter water through charcoal briquettes or
wood, I believe the output is LYE. You could make soap with the lye I
suppose,
Hey everyone,
Great news! I finally put 5 gallons of homebrewed BD in my old benz and
it
loved it. I also finally made a 15 gallon batch in my processor and it came
out great. My Problem is that on my processor I have a cone on the bottom of
a 55-gallon drum where all the glycerin
I'm sure I will be corrected if I am wrong but I seem to remember from
one of my other groups that charcoal would need to be converted to
activated carbon via super heated steam this steam opens up millions
upon millions of microscopic pores on the carbon which attract
impurities in things
contain different chemicals some of them poisonous and/or carcinogenic.

Thanks Dean.
I went on the premise that purifiers were made of charcoal (so far, so good)
but, had no background on how it's prepared.
I think you just discovered that I'm not a chemist.

Well said, Larry.
Kim, I'm sorry that you are suffering from this experience. The events in
people's lives, both good and bad, are felt by the people around them. Like a
drop of water into a pool, everyone is effected and the waves never stop, they
just get smaller with time and distance.

This could be very exciting news. A few questions:
Are we willing and able to harness genetically modified E Coli to do this?
What is the environmental risk of creating and distributing this organism?
Is it something that could be used at a small-farm scale, or only at a large
plant?

probably that FFA's will drive up you jell point on you wont be able to

hi, if anyone knows of a running plant using palm oil to make biodiesel I would
be very interested in its process.

by distractions inside the car, the top two were eating in the car and
adjusting the car stereo. Cell phones were responsible for just over 10%
This is a question I've had for a while now. If the purpose of making
Biodiesel is to lower the viscosity of the oil, what would happen if we used
just free fatty acids? Why won't that work?

It is indeed important to maintain perspective. Personally, I don't like
to see people drive and talk on the phone at the same time -- it's a
visible sign of a disregard for their own safety and the safety of others
