Top 10 Reasons Why You Should Consider Making Your Own Biodiesel
by shana



1. Biodiesel is EASY to make.
You can make Biodiesel in your
kitchen!. Anybody can make biodiesel.
2. Biodiesel is BETTER than the
Petro-diesel fuel
Biodiesel is cleaner. It cuts down on targeted emission -
better for the environment and better for health.
3. Biodiesel provides good
engine performance.
Your diesel motor will run better and last longer on
your home-made fuel.
4. The production and use of biodiesel create less
carbon dioxide emission compared to petroleum diesel.
Hence Causing less
damage to the atmosphere.
5. The Raw Material for making Biodiesel is
Renewable and Biodegradable.
You can make biodiesel from Vegetable Oil such
as palm
Oil Kony
Ealy Jersey , Rapeseed Oil, Soy Oil, etc.
6. Petroleum Oil Prices is
increasing.
Now, Biodiesel is at it's infancy. It is the best time for you
to start experimenting with biodiesel and if you know how to make it, then when
biodeiesel is in demand, you will be at the top.
7. Biodiesel can be used
neat or blended with petroleum diesel in any proportions.
So, when petroleum
diesel is too highly
priced Kevin
Norwood Jersey , like it is now, your biodiesel will be very much in
demand.
8. No modification is required on your diesel engine.
Biodiesel
operates in conventional combustion-ignition engines, from light to heavy-duty
just like petroleum diesel and no engine modifications are required.
9.
Fossil fuel is depleting.
Fossil fuel products have been used by mankind as
a source of energy and it was assumed that they will last forever. Time has
changed: with fossil fuel on depletion and global warming on the increase, it is
time to create a sustainable world.


10. Best of all is the GREAT
feeling of freedom, independence and empowerment it will give you.
Have you
experience such a feeling? You know what I mean.

So, How to make
Biodiesel?
Biodiesel is most commonly made by chemically altering an organic
oil through the use of a catalyst and an alcohol, typically Methanol. The
chemical reaction that occurs through this process breaks down the oil molecules
and replaces the glycerine portion of the molecule with an alcohol molecule. The
glycerine falls to the bottom and is drained off resulting in
Biodiesel.
Biodiesel is known chemically as a 'fatty acid methyl ester'.
Which is just a fancy way of saying it's a product made from Methanol and an
organic oil with fatty acid chains in it. It is easily made and has many
benefits Kelvin

and improved engine performance.
Biodiesel is actually very simple to make.
Anybody can make biodiesel. It's easy, you can make it in your kitchen -- and
it's BETTER than the petro-diesel fuel the big oil companies sell you. It is
made by chemically altering the molecular structure of any organic oil through
the use of a chemical catalyst and an alcohol.
This is how to make
Biodiesel:
To do this, oil is simply heated to a designated temperature (to
help with the chemical reaction) and then a mixture of catalyst and an alcohol
are added to the oil. The oil, catalyst, and alcohol mixture are then mixed for
a period of time and then allowed to settle. If successful, the chemical
reaction between the oil,
alcohol Kawann
Short Jersey , and the catalyst will have broken down the oil into several
layers. The top layer will be biodiesel, chemically called an Ester, the next
layer may contain soap, and the bottom layer will be glycerine.
Once the
layering has occured, the glycerine and soap are drained off. The biodiesel is
then washed with either a mist-wash, a bubble-wash, or both. The washing is done
to remove any additional
soap Josh
Thomas Jersey , alcohol, or other impurities in the biodiesel.
After
it's been washed, it is then dried to remove any water. Commonly it is then
filtered through fuel filters and is then ready to be used.

So, do you
think yo can make biodiesel now? No, of course not. If it is so simple, then
everyone will be making it. You need to obtain more information and gain more
knowledge in this area. Come and visit http:howtomakebiodesel.blogspot. There is
plenty of information there.

Picture an oil molecule? Now that's probably a bit hard, without a
microscope you can't actually see one. Instead lets look at a ping pong ball
with three tennis balls stuck to the side. The three tennis balls are what we
are interested
in Josh
Norman Jersey , the ping pong ball is glycerin

A simple chemical
reaction with a big name will separate these tennis balls from the ping pong
ball. In fact this chemical reaction will do a lot more. You will note when you
get used veggie oil from the local fast food store that it looks a bit yuk.
Apart from the veggie oil you will have bits of cooking detritus like chip bits,
crumbs, bits of burnt stuff and other gunk that make the oil unsuited to healthy
cooking. Performing this chemical reaction will separate this stuff as well as
the glycerin. What you will get is clean biodiesel separated from and lighter
than the glycerin and gunky stuff that once made up your used veggie
oil.

This simple process of making Biodiesel with a big name is called
transesterification! At right is a sample of transesterised veggie oil or
biodiesel, (keep reading for a recipe)! In this sample you can clearly see the
clean biodiesel fuel above and distinctly separated from the


Transesterification of veggie oil (making biodiesel) can be performed at
home using a home made mixing tank and two readily available ingredients. The
mixing tank(s) I use are pictured below, the simple ingredients are methanol and
caustic soda. Methanol is a racing fuel available from fuel agents and
