<x-charset ISO-8859-1>Hello Tomas, how goes? Still freezing or are there signs of spring yet? Last time you said it was "nice" - minus 3C! (That's not nice!)
>Hello All, > >Can some one say how much glycerol there is in SVO (rapeseed, sunflower, >coco....). Is the amount always constant 20 % or is it depending on the oil. It's about 7-8%. The amount of the by-product "cocktail" - glycerine + FFA (soap) + excess methanol + catalyst - varies according to the oil used and its condition and the process used and processing. More info here: How much glycerine? Why isn't it solid http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_make2.html#howmuchglyc By the way, we were talking about additives: >Thanks Keith, > >I will immediately look into Wintron XC30 this sounds promissing. Thanks >again this news group is a gold mine of info for biodieselers. > >The weather is back to nice -3ˆÁ. > >Best regards > >Tomas Wintron solved it for us, we had no trouble at all. Our WVO biodiesel's okay to about -5 deg C or so and it was often colder than that here, but not much colder than about -10 deg C. We used a 0.5% concentration, and for colder temps we'd just have used more, up to about 1%. It's still freezing at night but I guess the worst of it's over. Wintron's a very good product. Really serious winter cold might need different solutions, but for most people this will be fine. They've been testing a new formulation which they say works even better, and that will be available for next winter.
