My question is since
composting does a good job of breaking down lignin, would it be possible to use
composting as part of the ethanol creation process?
I can imagine that the micro organisms "eat" also
the sugars, leaving nothing for you to ferment to sugar.

If you are looking for oil production per hectare then I believe palm oil is at the top of the list. Check the archieves for more info.

Well although I agree if it aint broke don't fix it but according to the

Yes I figured the link was bogus (I guess you didn't notice my note to
that effect) so where is the real patent application do you have a
link? How did you find it? Ray do you have it?
BTW I did a quick test last night using a tesla coil and 40ml of WVO

Bob,
Do you have the link for the correct patent? Or can you repost the relevant
information?

The methoxide that I make by mixing 99% methanol with 85% assay KOH
is volitile and definitely liquid.
You are making a mixture, the volatile component of which is still methanol
So would it be correct to say there's no such thing as methoxide fumes?

I didn't read the Patent, and I'm not an electrical engineer, but have
worked on processes that involved high energy electrodes in liquids to
produce combustible fuels (Hydrogen, CO, and other hydrocarbons). 3-5
kV is going to be difficult to attain. I guess it's possible at ultra
low current.

Hi Felipe,and all,according to me to run your car on methanol you will need
about double the volume thus bigger injectors which is expensive and like i
said methanol burns to +-6/1 were petrol burns 14 / 1 so u will need more feul
to go the same distance in South Africa methanol costs r 2.37/l
