Hmmm. I wonder if it's possible to convert biomass to Methanol (THEN the resulting methanol plus WVO equals Biodiesel)????
That would make it possible to make Biodiesel without relying on "commercial" anything-at-all. Living "totally off-the-land".

Check Was your work on up, down or crossdraft ? Did you use it for powergeneration or for thermal energy only ? What was the process followed forconversion of syngas tomethanol ? What were the stage wise yields of methanol and the energybalance? ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Make a clean sweep of pop-up ads. Yahoo! Companion Toolbar.
