Hi Todd,
There is a method of making biodiesel where all feedstock is converted
to soap, then chemically cracked to 100% FFAs and esterified to yield
~100% biodiesel. But it's doubtful that you have the set up for
something that involved at any moderate scale.
What methode is that ?
How stupid am I ??
When we remove the FFA's , we have only left the FFA's connected to a glyc
molecule.
Right so far ?
The next step we do with the single stage is, breaking the fatty acids of
the glyc molecule, which produces FFA's.
(Not) right so far ?
Next we connect a meth. molecule on top of
Organosilane fuels?
When carbon is oxidised we get a gas; when silicon is oxidised we get
sand. External combustion engines perhaps. Not as efficient.
