OTOH,
I think we in the home-brew community need to be alert for any movement
on the part of the big trap grease companies to do just this.
I believe they will start to feel threatened and make collection of WVO
difficult by.

2. WVO will require

Transestherification swaps out the glycerol chain for an alcohol one w/i the
molecular bond of the oil, which, like Keith said, makes it burn...or rather

Regarding the emissions of SVO, I have some EPA data from a 1974
Mercedes running on WVO that has never been published. I'll post it
here if I can find it again. Some students did the testing on a

The answer to your first question is no I didn't. However it's your
second question that I'm responding to. According to the link you
provided, it states that it will work with biodiesel. I don't know if
you really didn't look at the site or were simply trolling.

Any one who has done at least a little research into
the biodiesel conversion process is aware that it removes glycerin from
the wvo and converts the oil into esters. Viscosity reduction may be a
by product but is not why the process is done.

From what I read, the device functions by assisting in dispersion of
the fuel -- just like the new super high pressure CRD injection
systems. So if it really does do that, I can see that it would help.
However, I am a little skeptical that I can actually do this. Even

I'm think the other side of the story may be that they, like many
large corporations, will actually talk down to potential customers, or
in language the company believes will be best understood. Whether

Hallo @ all,
did anyone of you know about this Tadgerdevice to
enhance burning of Fuel etc.?
www.tadgergroup.com
would this device work with Biofuel
to?
thanks for your input
