Hi Ken,
Here are two good links. I enjoyed reading about the K cars. The larger
engined ones with 600 cc or so have a nominal 60 something hp and a weight
of around 1800 lb. The sporty ones are doing up to 106mph so nothing wrong
with the top speed or economy. If you want a lot of
Or, as someone who maintanes websites, my feeling is - " if you don't

Big Time. If everything is insulated (in a perfect world) it wouldn't.
But seldom is everything.
Even at moderate temps fats and hydrogenated oils sometimes gel in pumps
and pipes, giving need for flushing between batches with either

I think so also. The biodiesel process is not a thing to be undertaken
in a casual way. I don't think the JtoF site should be written as an
Idiot's guide to homemade fuel , And I am not insinuating that anyone
who struggles with it is an idiot either. It is not a trivial thing.

Dear All-
I have a really quick question here: The Phenopthalein solution I use
is a
1% in IPA (reagent grade from Sigma-Aldrich). This should be appropriate for
titrating WVO with a 1 normal (1g/l) solution of NaOH in DI water, with the
comversion being 1mL of NaOH added corresponding to
Just to throw my cents worth out without having much of a clue about what
results you are looking for exactly.
From what I know and if melting of the conductors is a concern. A high grade
of graphite has a melting point roughly 4 times that of oxygen free copper.
if interested try a machine
Thanks Earl.
Best regards,
Chris

I was reading your post and it was a symphony to my eyes and mind. I am

I would like to know where I could find more information related to this kind of reaction or process.

Hello folks
For those with experience in the.pricing out and purchasing of KOH,
is it common place for one chemical company(Univar) to be selling 90%
pure flake @ $2.78 per kg, and the next company(Anachemia) to be selling
85% pure pellets(ACS certified) @ $28.50 per kg?
What prices
Marc,
Purity can vary. But price shouldn't be but a few pennies or a dollar or
