In a fit of insomnia last night I realised that the formula I gave
for sizing the hp requirement was a load of old bollocks. ie
incorrect. It should read : 11000/750/.8 = about 18.5 hp required.
My apologies.

Where are you getting this from? Veggie oil is *more* lubricating than

For the past 15,000 years the Earth is in a interglacial time period
which historically lasts about 10,000 to 20,000 years. We've read about
global mountain range glacial melts, the north and south poles
decreasing ice formations and CO2 stored peat bogs of Alaska (frozen)

Just because some vegetable oils (canola) are better lubricants then
diesel doesn't mean they all are.
Canola oil has excellent lubricating qualities, the other veg oils

Maybe we should just start hounding Congress to support biodiesel in any way
possible, including paying farmers to grow soy for its production and
mandating its use over petroleum diesel. They could do all of this in the

Hello folks,
I had been lurking on another biodiesel newsgroup for a few years now
and just became aware of this board. A year or two ago I took the
plunge and made some successful batches of biodiesel with fresh oil,
but I never got past the whole titration process to actually make it
