RE: [Biofuel] aquatico site...
yes they are great folk and really do good customer service. I am doing some aquaponics now and am curious of the algae feed stock. I have down some solar algae ponds and tanks get that way anyway (grin ) if you don't clean them. the tilapia eat it and keep up with most of the issues. you can produce a lot of algae in a very small space if you were just trying to grow algae. what algae has oil in it? mel -Original Message- From: Philip S.

good stuff we have been leaning towards doing something with algea for biodiesel as one of our feedstocks, this looks like the place...:^) Philip Okey Innovative Energy & Solvents LLC Indianpolis, IN [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, 22 Dec 2004 02:50:51 -0600, Mel Riser wrote: *A good source for 1 micron ceramic water filters is Aquatic Eco Systems in Apopka Florida * *www.aquaticeco.com * *they also have 5 10 and 20 micron filters. if you get the right housing, they can take a huge amount of pressure, though I guess most pumps only put out about 10 psi. * *I have bought a lot of stuff from these folks and it is WORTH getting a catalog. * *they sell really good poly tanks as well. * *mel * *-Original Message- *From: Johnsson Tomas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 1:05 AM *To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *Subject: VS: [Biofuel] I need filters * * *Hello All, * *We are using normal water filter housings and filter elements.
