WOW!*! I just glanced at some of the emissions data in the Missouri study and was shocked at how poorly SVO performs. I can't see why I would want to install an SVO system from an environmental perspective, although certainly I see the cost savings if you can get your used oil for free. Biodiesel just seems the much cleaner alternative.
Any counter-arguments? Am I missing something? Why is SVO so darn dirty? thor -------------------------------------------- Message: 9 Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2003 18:16:00 +0100 From: "Darren Hill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: UPDATE: Use of vegetable oil in a diesel engine Detrick, I just compiled this list for somebody else, I know you have seen Ed Beggs thesis already but here are the other sources I could think of. For SVO emission data try:- http://bengal.missouri.edu/~pavt0689/Review_Utilization_of_Rapeseed_Oil.pdf This is a good source, outrageously big file size due to bad file formatting. Also a part translation of the German page http://www.biocar.de/download a thesis report examining emissions from a vehicle equipped with a Biocar conversion is available from my site:- www.vegburner.co.uk/biocar if this does not work let me know. http://www.nf-2000.org/secure/Fair/F484.htm Widely regarded as one of the best PPO technical papers, has some information on particulate emissions. http://www.biodiesel.org/reports/GEN-162.doc If I remember correctly also contains relevant info. Hope these help. Darren __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com ------------------------ Yahoo!
