Re: [biofuel] Testing iodine value? Degumming?

Hello Mike, welcome

I'm a bit of a newbie on the subject, I tried to search the messages
for iodine but aparently none in the subject line.

I suspect you're using the wrong message archives. DON'T use Yahoo's 
archives! It's useless. It searches 50-60 messages at a time or 
something, which means that it would take about 700 pages to search 
the whole list, Yahoo pages at that, plus the ads.

Use the list's independent archives, linked at the end of every 
message and at the list's homepage at Yahoo:

Biofuels list archives:
http://archive.nnytech.net/

It's a treasure house of information on all aspects of biofuels, 
especially biodiesel - it contains 35,000 messages over the last four 
years, many of them from leaders in the field worldwide. It's 
provided and  maintained by list member Martin Klingensmith, with 
powerful, fast and efficient searching, and no ads.

If you search for iodine there, you get this:
http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/?keywords=iodinetime=6monthsus 
ertime=2002-12-31

Reading the messages there, if you hit Click here for more on this 
subject it'll show you the whole thread in a clickable table at the 
top.

I have read a good amount and am weighing out a lot of factors before
playing with this idea.
Could someone give me a link or explain what the iodine value of the
fuel relates to? I can't recall if this refers to svo or to processed
fuel.

Both.

There are several tables detailing iodine values here:

Oil yields and characteristics

See:

National standards for biodiesel:
http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_yield.html#biodstds

Also as far as svo goes how exactly would one go about degumming svo?

In certain cases, particularly with oils containing substantial 
amounts of phospholipids (e.g. soybean oil), a primary treatment 
called degumming is performed by adding 2 to 3% water, agitating the 
mixture at 50¼C and removing the hydrated phospholipids by means of 
settling or centrifugation. In the physical refining process, 
degummimg is performed by adding phosphoric acid to ensure 
phospholipid separation instead of water.

Chemical Reactions of Oil, Fat and Fat Based  3. Processing of raw 
materials  3.4. Refining - production, storage and packaging of 
refined oils  a) Settling and Degumming

B. Degumming
Crude oils having relatively high levels of phosphatides (e.g., 
soybean oil) may be degummed prior to refining to remove the majority 
of those phospholipid compounds. The process generally involves 
treating the crude oil with a limited amount of water to hydrate the 
phosphatides and make them separable by centrifugation. Soybean oil 
is the most common oil to be degummed; the phospholipids are often 
recovered and further processed to yield a variety of lecithin 
products.
