Re: [biofuels-biz] waste oil burners bu rning glycerine, ffa'sÊ Re: [biofuel] Re: b iodiesel vs. propane for heating

2003-01-12 Thread Tilapia

I've got a couple years experience with burning glycerin. I had to do it, 
I've got such a large accumulation of the stuff. I've tried it in a couple of 
wood boilers and in a babington burner. The stuff does burn, but it takes 
special conditions to keep it going. Basically, without being exact about the 
fine details, it takes about 1000 degrees of temperature to keep the stuff 
going. Below that temperature and you'll mostly just burn off the methanol 
component, leaving a heavy vegetable based tar residue.   It tried it in a 
babington, but it does not burn above about a 25% mix with oil. In a wood 
boiler it burns on top of coals well, but when the wood fire dies out it just 
accumulates the glycerin without much reduction.

My current burner has a babington burner running on vegetable oil into a 
masonry stove with a separate drip of glycerin onto a hot steel plate. It 
burns very cleanly and VERY hot. Absolutely no emissions visible. Now I have 
to find out what to do with over 100 btu's per hour.

2003-01-12 Thread Keith Addison

Hello Mark

   I looked up a few of those commercial oil burners for use with WVO.
Sounds pretty interesting, though pricey... something to try and find
secondhand, maybe?

Then I got an email from a farmer nearby, someone who grows oil crops,
asking about biodiesel production for on-farm use, and about ways to reduce
waste in the process, all the usual questions people have. We were talking
about 'glycerine' and ways to deal with it besides disposal...

Does anyone on this list have experience burning their glycerine for shop
heat or process heat, using some kind of waste oil burner, either one of
these commercial units or one of the homebuilt ones off of Journeytoforever?

I think Chuck Ranum's doing that:
http://journeytoforever.org/biodiesel_processor4.html
Biodiesel processors

I asked Michael Allen something about this recently:

Would 11% glyc plus the FFAs be enough to power the process?

Glycerol has a higher heating value of 13.6 kJ/kg (if my sums are 
correct) 100 litres of palm-oil weighs in at 91.06 kg. It produces 
about 8.55 kg of glycerol so we  will get less than 13.6 x 8.55 kJ 
to heat palm oil (= 116.28 kJ). Now that 91.06 kg of palm  oil has 
an estimated specific heat of about 2 kJ/kg K. So we can use the 
glycerol *at  best* to heat the palm oil through 116.28/(91.06 x 2) 
= 0.6K ! So if you want to get the  palm oil to 60C, it had better 
be 59.5C when you start. This tram-ticket calculation  ignored FFA 
and also heat losses from the equipment. If the full heat  of 
combustion of  glycerol were available, you might get a 5 degree C 
rise.

:-(

I know that burning glycerine can produce some toxic gases if not done
properly.

Mainly acrolein.

Biodieselers have occasionally talked about burning the 
alcohol/glycerin/FFA/catalyst mix in a traditional fuel oil furnace 
as a method of disposal. This would probably create an inadequate 
combustion scenario and is not recommended. That does not mean that 
it couldn't be done in an oxygen rich environment, such as a furnace 
specifically designed for waste motor oils. But even that would have 
to be tested.

Acrolein boils at 53C (127F), so any acrolein actually in the glyc 
will be long gone if you removed the excess methanol. Acrolein forms 
when glycerine decomposes. Glycerine (pure) boils at 290¼C. The 
glyc-ffa-catalyst mixture will boil at a lower temp than that.

http://ptcl.chem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/AC/acrolein.html
Safety data for acrolein

http://www.jtbaker.com/msds/englishhtml/a1538.htm
Acrolein

However:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/biofuel/message/13799

- There is inadequate evidence in experimental animals for the
carcinogenicity of acrolein.
- Acrolein is not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans (Group 3).
(International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), part of the
World Health Organization)

Carconigenic or not, it's certainly toxic.

What is 'properly' in this case? some particular temperature,
some particular combustion environment?  how does one know, using a
Babington or a waste oil burner to burn glycerine byproduct, that it is
safe to do so?

It strikes me that people burning SVO or WVO in waste oil heaters or 
whatever don't seem to share this concern, which only comes up when 
it's a question of burning the glycerine. But the glycerine comes 
from the VO after all, if at a lower concentration, so shouldn't they 
have the same concern? I don't want to minimise safety concerns, but 
maybe we make too much of it.

A Babington burner should surely be hot enough, an MEN heater should 
be too, but anyway the exhaust goes outside - not proposing to 
pollute the outside, it probably wouldn't be any more than is 
released burning SVO in a car (some).

Also I do the 'ffa recovery' process sometimes- purifying 'glycerine' with
an acid to break down the soaps into salt and ffa, and producing a cleaner
glycerine for degreaser use. Like everyone I know whose tried this, I've
got a bit of ffa byproduct sitting around in my 'odd chemicals' collection
now (I believe Ken Provost experimented with using that same ffa in
soapmaking?).

I've made other stuff out of it (release agent/Dubbin, for instance - 
good!), but haven't got round to making soap yet, coming next. I also 
don't have anything ideal for burning it in (also coming next), but 
it burnt about the same as SVO in a wick lamp - in other words it 
went out quite soon, but burnt okay up to then. The wick's the 
problem, not the burning. No glyc fumes.

I tried to get the vegoil folks to experiment with it as a fuel, but 
the whole discussion got side-tracked (Paddy's weird doubts that it 
is FFA). I'll do that myself soon as I get the chance.

I want to use WVO and glyc/ffa/catalyst and separated ffa for heating 
and process heat in the coming months, much appreciate any further 
input on this issue.

It's usually that way. The real problem of agriculture is surplus. 
It's very complex, but those involved apparently don't want to solve

 I can only imagine what a 'Power Trip' it must be to be able to buy

'Fraid so. Big bureaucracies on the one hand and big agribusiness on 
the other - Archer Daniels Midland, Monsanto, Cargill, along with all 
the Soy Boards etc that they control. (The farmers are just serfs.) 
Hence the world's biggest tank farm, with about 4 billion gallons of 
soy oil - which is the by-product, the feed-cake is the product, 
the other nightmare of industrialized livestock farming is intended 
to absorb the excess, allegedly adding value (plus massive 
externalizations, as at each corner of this stupid and destructive 
system).

Same with corn (surplus corn is the cheapest thing for Americans to 
burn in their woodstoves - more than a billion bushels went unused in 
2000), same with lots of things, and the same in all the 
industrialized countries. And then, too often, it gets dumped on 3rd 
World markets, putting their own farmers out of business and causing 
immense distortions all along the line, often ending up with starving 
people at the end of it - as in Southern Africa now, widely blamed on 
the drought, on people like Mugabe, and stuff like Zambia's refusing 
to accept GMO food aid, but it's not so.

The IMF has at least as much to do with the hunger as the drought 
does, along with the rest of the thoroughly rigged free market (the 
rich nations are allowed their subsidies, the poor ones of course 
aren't, that's only fair, you see).

E.U. Ban on Genetically Modified Food Criticized, New York Times, Jan. 9 0

The Bush administration's top trade official announced today that he 
wanted to file a case against the European Union for its ban on 
genetically modified food, calling the European position Luddite 
and immoral for leading to starvation in the developing world.

Robert B. Zoellick, the United States trade representative, said he 
lost his patience with the four-year-old feud about the safety of 
American biotechnology food last year when African nations with 
starving populations refused to accept American food aid because the 
grain was genetically modified.

The European antiscientific policies are spreading to other corners 
of the world, Mr. Zoellick said at a meeting with reporters. It has 
been used by political leaders in Africa to not eat the food that you 
and I eat and rather let their people starve. I think that is a 
rather serious development

Europeans have equally harsh views of the American position, which 
they believe are influenced as much by American agribusiness as by 
concerns about feeding the hungry of the world. British newspapers 
have called the crops Frankenfoods, reflecting the deep suspicion 
of crops like corn and soybeans that through genetic modification 
have provided larger harvests and have proved less vulnerable to 
disease and drought.

WRONG - GM soy and corn have NOT provided larger harvests, there is 
NO evidence that GMs increase yields, they have NOT proved less 
vulnerable to disease and drought, they have NOT even resulted in the 
use of less herbicide as promised - in fact they use MORE herbicides. 
They were constructed (NOT bred) for herbicide tolerance, not for 
higher yields or to feed the hungry - for higher agribiz profits, 
that's all. And multiple problems are emerging, despite all 
assurances - every single promise made so far about this 
ANTISCIENTIFIC junk has been broken.

Hi, and welcome

Short answer is yes.

Biodiesel will replace
fuel oil nicely in standard fuel oil gun type
furnaces but Straight Veg Oil (SVO) causes a buildup
(acrolein?) which quickly degrades efficiency. Waste
oil burners apparently work well for SVO but are
expensive.

Not acrolein anyway, gums and tars and gunk.

Do a search in the archives, it's been discussed quite a lot.

I think you will find that any very tall building can be brought down just
as these two were when you have a very intense petrochemical fire (Jet
Fuel) burning for some time at least one third of the way down the
building. It lets one or two floors collapse at the same time and the above
floors act as a very large hammer and drive all the lower floors down until
the lower floors are all flat then the velocity of the fall does the same
to the remaining upper floors. Keep in mind that the WTC's were of an
interesting design with much of the load taken by the outer side structures
as compared to a more normal steel building with a steel frame throughout
the interior. This permitted full open floors that allowed for maximum
flexibility in floor plans to meet tenants needs.

If you will look at the pictures of the disaster take from the air a few
days later, and before the clean up was well under way I think you will see
that it was a real mess, not at all like the controlled demolition of an
older building and many of the other buildings in the area were severely
damaged to the point that several may have to be demolished.

Good thought but it is just not factual.

[biofuel] Re: methanol vs ethanol

2003-01-12 Thread NeilUSA

I have been watching the serious safety issues (great use of this list) per 
using methanol in the production of biodiesel.  I understand ethanol works 
as well though I understand it is a bit more complicated a process.  Pardon 
my ignorance; but, I have looked around and have not found the differences 
explained.  Many find producing moonshine easy and getting an alcohol 
with many uses including organic and inorganic fuel burners.  Seems this 
might be a simple way of getting a safe alcohol molecular chain for use 
in biodiesel production as for direct uses.  There are plenty of sites 
explaining simple moonshine stills.  Now will someone explain the methanol 
vs ethanol differences in processing please and keep this in line for the 
single car owner level of production?

RE: [biofuel] Doing it once is already hard Was: doo doo

2003-01-12 Thread Myles Twete

Key difference between professional demolition and Sept.11 planes and WTC
buildings falling:  the upper floor pancaked, leading to cascade pancake
failures.  Without a side-force, or a designed-in assymmetry to floor
strength, even Newton would expect the WTC to have pancaked straight down.
No need for pros to do the job.

About fabricating the WTC attacks ... I'm not gonna debate whether it was
.. or not cause I have NO proof for what I'm about to say.

I'm simply gonna comment that there is ONE strange thing that's always
bothered me about the WTC incident.  TWO separate planes driven by TWO sets
of terrorists strike TWO entirely different buildings (towers).   Yet EACH
of these two physically separated incidences ... brought down BOTH building
STRAIGHT DOWN.   DEMOLITION PERFECT.   Like those demolitions you see on
the news sometime ... bringing down old buildings.

Now remember ... those demolitions you see on the news  they're done by
explosives experts.  The building is studied for weeks ... the charges
precisely placed.  CAREFULLY placed.  DELIBERATELY placed.  That's the kind
of precision that (supposedly) it takes to make a building come straight
down.  To avoid damaging nearby buildings.

So now a stolen aircraft hits a building at a random angle brings a building
straight down??  And the a SECOND plane hits a SECOND building??  And ALSO
brings it straight down??  The chances for a random (non deliberate charges
placed just in certain places) plane hit making it fall straight down ...
are already microscopic.   Now a second (2nd tower) repeat performance??
The odd against THAT are UNBELIEVABLE!!!

I'm NOT implying anything.  But I WILL say that it sure makes my
suspicious-o-meter needle shoot up.

So tell me, whom are we bombing to rape their resources? Afghanistan?  I
suppose that is a flimsy excuse we facricated the WTC attacks so that  we
can waste our time and spend money there for nothing. If we were fabricating
it.. it would have made more sense to fabricate it so that Saddam did it.
If we were going to rip off all their oil.. why didnt we do it 12 years ago?

But it wasn't the impact of the aircraft that brought those buildings down.
Burning fuel heated the steel superstructure to the point where it could no
longer support the building, and gravity did the rest.  I'd seen something
similar with the steel in my wood stove.  Burning hardwood for a season almost
always warped a steel baffle plate that directed secondary air into the stove.
I was subsequently educated by someone familiar with wood stoves that steel
becomes elastic at temperatures exceeding 1 000 F, so I had to install a
pyrometer and adjust the air intake to avoid burning my fires too hot.  (I HAD
to get biofuels into this post, somehow!)

I was in Baltimore that awful day, watching the whole episode on CNN.  I
remember telling my aunt that those buildings would come straight down if the
fire wasn't extinguished.  There was no mystery about it in my mind.


 I'm NOT implying anything.  But I WILL say that it sure makes my
 suspicious-o-meter needle shoot up.

So then, what ARE you saying?

[biofuel] It just the Odds Was: Doing it once is already hard

2003-01-12 Thread csakima

I'm just saying that to have two independant events both causing two
separate building come down in the same (GENERALLY, I agree it wasn't
exactly) demolition-perfect straight down ... sure was strange to me in a
crap-shoot odds (what are the odds) sorta way.

Gee, maybe we should build our commercial building like the WTC was built.
Then, when it's time to demolish it all we gotta do is build a massive
fire inside.  No (expensive) professionals needed!  :)

Actualy the odds are very good that they would come down the same way.  They
were designed, built, hit, and the fires were about the same temp.  About
the only differance is were they were hit, and that is what accounted for
the time differance it took for structure failure.

Only if you're an American, otherwise decilitre, mostly, and also

it). It doesn't matter on international groups like this, as long as
