Best Oil For Biodiesel

For cars?

The truck we do a Bio Biodiesel is currently operating a 1999 Dodge truck (we have 1100% of the runs on water, 2 and 1 electric vehicles running on ethanol). But all Cummins engines were modified by the factory to operate on Biod since around 1992 without any modification.

Biofuel is recognized by both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy as an alternative fuel, and qualifies for mandated programs under the Clean Air Act Amendments and the Environmental Protection Act 1992 (EPA).

USDA Clears Air with Biofuel: Buses and other diesel vehicles to burn cleaner if they mix biofuel with regular diesel fuel, said the U.S. Department of Agriculture at a biofuel fuel seminar center Search the USDA.

Conversely most major automotive manufacturers (Chrysler, Ford and General Motors, etc) recommend the use of biofuels, and almost all car manufacturers in the world approves ethanol blends in their warranty coverage.

In fact, you're probably even driving a Flex Fuel car & do not even know it.

The trick is finding fuel.

I've been producing biofuel for about 8 years now, this is not very difficult. Basically you need general household ingredients, a processor (or still for ethanol) and oil used. Blend it, let separate, screen and use. I complied a guide a while ago to help walk you threw the process step by step, just send me an email or visit ..

aec 1 liter of new vegetable oil, whatever the supermarket sells as cooking oil
aec 200 ml of methanol, 99 +% pure
aec lye catalyst - either potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
aec blender or mini processor
aec scales accurate to 0.1 grams, preferably less - 0.01 grams is the best
aec measuring beakers for methanol and oil
aec a half-liter translucent white HDPE (# 2 plastic) with screw cap and the cap
aec 2 funnels to meet the HDPE containers
aec 2-liter PET bottle (water or soft drinks bottle) for settling
aec two 2-liter PET bottles for washing

Use the "Methoxide the easy way" method - it's also the safe way. Here's how.
Measure out 200 ml of methanol and pour it into the container a half-liter HDPE through the funnel. Methanol also absorbs water from the atmosphere so do it quickly and replace the container lid tightly methanol. Do not be too frightened of methanol, if you work at normal room temperature and keep you at arm's length you will not be exposed to dangerous fumes.

Carefully add the lye to the HDPE container via the funnel seconds. Replace the cap and screw on the cap.
Shake the container a few times - swirl around him rather than shake up and down. The mixture is warm reaction. If you swirl it thoroughly for a minute or so five or six times over a period of time the lye will completely dissolve in methanol, forming sodium methoxide or potassium methoxide. Once the liquid is clear with no undissolved particles you can begin the process.
The more you swirl the container the faster the lye will dissolve. With NaOH it can take between one day and few hours to as little as half an hour with a lot of vorticity (but do not be impatient, wait until all the lye to dissolve). Mixing KOH is much faster, it dissolves in the methanol more easily than NaOH and can be ready in 10 minutes.

Using a mixer. Use a spare blender you do not need or opportunity for a low price One - cheap because it might not last very long, but you can keep going until you build something better .
Check that the mixer itself.
