KOH is more expensive so people tend to go cheaper. I think both are exothermic.

If you assume that the NaOH and KOH you are using are 100% each (which they are not) the ratio of KOH to NaOH varies by their formula weight KOH is 56 that of NaOH is 40 therefore you would use 56/40 times as much KOH by weight. _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://wwia.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/biofuel Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuel archives at Infoarchive.net (searchable): http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/
