Keith: Thanks for responding. I do a second distillation using calcium
chloride and then 3A molecular sieve to dry the alcohol. So far I have been
using 50% lard mixed with 50% soybean oil (both used) . I am in the process
of eliminating the lard and using used soybean oil with a titration
Hello Lee
I have been making biodiesel using ethanol for about a year. Methanol is
$500 a barrel in Hawaii. I'm having some difficulty with partial conversions
with substantial vegetable oil remaining dissolved in the ethyl esters
demonstrable by the methanol test. I have been using 99% alcohol
