[biofuel] Biodiesel in modern heating oil burner

2001-05-24 Thread plato

Does anyone have experience using biodiesel in a heating oil burner.

I aked this once, and plently of people said yes.
However, I do not think they have tried it.  

I need actual examples with burner type, model, nozzle size, BTU 
estimate, necesary adjustments.   

Any problems associated with modern, high efficiency oil burners?

[biofuel] Silica Gel

2001-05-24 Thread plato

I hear that silica gel can be used to take the last 5% of the water 
out of ethanol.  

Does this help?
What are the advantages?
How much do you need/use?
Any info or informational resources would be appreciated?

I have some extra silica gel (10 pounds) if someone needs it or wants 
to experiment with it.

[biofuel] Biodiesel in a heating oil burner?

2001-05-21 Thread plato

I have some questions. Does anyone know the answers, or where to look?

1)Can biodiesel be used in a modern heating oil burner?

2)Can it be blended with petroleum-based diesel and used in a modern 
heating oil burner?

3)Are there any particular types or brands of modern heating oil 
burner that can use biodiesel or a blend of biodiesel and petroleum-
based diesel?
