Re: [Biofuel] pump position problem
Jason Katie, It probably will not stay flooded once the pump starts up. A priming chamber depends on having the chamber filled with fluid where a large part of the chamber is lower than the inlet pipe connection. That way the chamber can not drain back all of its contents back into the suction pipe. The chamber is then high enough with respect to the pump impeller and impeller housing to keep the pump head / impeller area flooded during pump and while the pump is off.

Re: [Biofuel] sustainable biodiesel from Casto : Big is not beautiful, small is more sustainable
Dear Bob and Keith I am very sorry for the late reply , not able to be as quick as KEITHI interpreted this to mean that the crushed seeds are subjected to the alkali catalyst/methanol hence the seed cake is exposed to the reaction. Here in Brazil nobody like to use Methanol , yes you are correct that the crushed seed is used as feed stock.The mixture of this two methanol and ethanol can be better, but the process for the big scale use methanol , and there is also effort to make the carbohydrate to make ethanol in future.sdPannirselvam bob allen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: By using one step simultaneous extraction and esterification , the patented process use crushed seeds to make four products , the BioD , the glycerol , the protein, carbohydrate that seem to deintoxicated for animal feed is now being scaled up to big pilot plant.I interpreted this to mean that the crushed seeds are subjected to the alkali catalyst/methanol hence the seedcake is exposed to the reaction. I've seen papers other papers discuss simultaneous extraction/reaction with soya bean flakes. the problem was that much more methanol is need to extract the oil during the processing into biodiesel, partly due to the moisture content of the beans.Keith Addison wrote: Ricin is a protein which would be denatured by the reaction conditions. Denaturation just means changing the shape of the protein, thus inactivating it. Same as hard boiling an egg more or less. Thanks Bob. But I think the ricin doesn't get into the oil, it's in the husk, and thus in the seedcake. I see James Duke says: "Although it is highly toxic due to the ricin, a method of detoxicating the meal has now been found, so that it can safely be fed to livestock." Ricinus communis, "Handbook of Energy Crops", James A. Duke, 1983 http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/duke_energy/Ricinus_communis.html Maybe they just hard-boil the seedcake.Re the high viscosity:Brazil has 20 years of good research reports about castor oil use as biofuel , which we have the acess .One main problem with castor oil BioD is the viscosity that can be easily solved. That seems to be the main problem. Castor oil is 100 times more viscous than petro-diesel. Castor oil biodiesel is less viscous than the straight oil, but several references say it is still higher than the national standards specification limits. If there is an easy way to make it less viscous or to solve the problem that would be valuable to know. Do you have any further information on this? This is quite interesting on how castor oil works as a lubricant and why it's different to other oils: http://www.georgiacombat.com/CASTOR_OIL.htm CASTOR OIL Castor oil has good lubricity, I wonder if castor oil biodiesel have better lubricity than others. Maybe that could offset the viscosity problem. More and more places are following the French and specifying biodiesel as a lubrication additive in LS diesel fuel. If it had better lubricity you'd need to use less, and the high viscosity wouldn't matter at such a low percentage. Which is where I grind to a halt because the difference between lubricity and viscosity isn't that clear, or at least not to me, especially when you add high temperatures. Anyone know better?

How that's any more "sustainable" than organic hydro, Idon't understand. to make organic hydro one need also understand ecological bio systems . Here in Brazil, sugarcane based substrate , hydro system to make corn seed fast growing system has been found to be successful in demonstration level. When they made in big scale , several cows that were taking this hydro based beautiful green feed has died. Surely the microbial infection of this hydro system can be monitored , controlled , but not a sustainable system , yet .Now no more hydro system here even though there is need for the same because we are in dry landActually, much like JTF has international projects to keep people fed,there's a large aquaponics group that helps areas of dense populationw/ no or poor soil to have a very inexpensive, non-motorized, systemof food production vis-a-vis the fish and vegetables grown in the samelocation.

However, I don't. There are several other benefits too,like handicapped accessibility and whatnot.

Re: [Biofuel] Bush and the current state of the US
Didn't you hear? Saving resources for the war effort is out of date. It's been replaced by simpler and cleaner actions such as simply putting a yellow ribbon on your giant SUV now. I wasn't around in the 40's, but it does seem like people took war alot more seriously then, and actually knew what it meant to be a nation at war, unlike today.

April 20, 2006; 12:15 p.m. High court rules against Hays family Comment on this article By Stephanie Sievers, Springfield bureau Photo: Terry Herbig This stretch of road along U.S. 150 is the area where the body of Doris Hayes, Orion, was discovered. She was found outside her car, which had run off the road and into a deep ravine on the east side of U.S. 150, about a mile and a half south of Coal Valley. More photos from this shoot Graphic: Submitted Doris Hays SPRINGFIELD - The Illinois Supreme Court has sided with local law enforcement, ruling today they were immune from liability even though they failed to come to the aid of Doris Hays, an Orion woman who died after a car accident. The 68-year-old woman died in 2002 after she wrecked her car on U.S. 150 near the Henry/Rock Island county line. A passerby called for help and the message was relayed to multiple law enforcement agencies, but no help ever arrived. Hays' body wasn't found until three days later. Her sister, Mary DeSmet, filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against a number of defendants, including Rock Island County and Sheriff Michael Grchan, Henry County and Sheriff Gilbert Cady, Orion, Moline and East Moline. The state's highest court agreed with lower courts that the lawsuit should be dismissed. The court found that although people have a right to expect police to respond to such a situation, authorities weren't liable under the Tort Immunity Act, which protects governmental entities and employees from lawsuits. There is an exception for willful and wanton behavior, but since law enforcement never responded or tried to enforce the law, that exception didn't apply in this case, wrote Justice Lloyd Karmeier, who penned the majority opinion. Ms. Hays' family appealed to the state's highest court after lower-level courts threw out the case on the grounds that governmental entities and employees were protected against the lawsuit by the Tort Immunity Act. Michael Rathsack, the appellate attorney for the family, said that, while lawmakers wanted to protect such groups from legal liability, the Hays case probably isn't what they had in mind. 'I don't think the legislature ever thought that somebody would call and they would say, 'We'll come,' and they don't come. That's the problem. We're trying to look at a statute that was never designed to address the situation,' he said. Law enforcement is granted fairly broad lawsuit protection even when it fails to provide adequate service. Mr. Rathsack was asking the Illinois Supreme Court to decide if that immunity should cover providing no service at all. Robert Noe, a Moline attorney representing Rock Island County, Sheriff Grchan and emergency services dispatcher Myrtle DeWitte, argued that no police response is the same as an inadequate response, which is protected. He also said that, by the time the call was relayed to Rock Island County, dispatchers were only told that a car was in a ditch.

Re: [Biofuel] I always new they were worthless
Once again I repeat myself, this time with the transcript attached to keep anyone who cares on track. Did the person who called in the accident rightly feel that rendering aid only consists of placing a phone call (perhaps one not totally clear as to the actual circumstances) and then driving off as a morally correct action? What in the phrase rendering aid was not understood? If you were in a wreck and someone with a cell phone in hand asked if they could help and you said sure. Then they said I'll call 911, but see-ya, good luck, would you feel good? Would you do this to someone in need and still feel good about yourself. Sure, the local community has a deeper pocket than the AH who drove off, so there is where to try and sue. Any successful lawyer will advise you of that. But blame the marginally paid 911 operators with (possibly) poor information? Get real on who is negligent. Michael ... and this really pisses me off. Hate the establishment, yet blame them when we (a supposed community) personally fail.

Re: [Biofuel] I always new they were worthless
ok i understand your point about the jackhole who drove off, but even so, the authorities were called, and didn't even deign to answer. it is still their sworn duty to serve and protect, and unless there was something inherently evil about coming to this person's aid, i say they shirked their protection directive by a fairly wide margin. and i know a couple rock island dispatch operators personally, and it is standard to page EVERYBODY in an uncertain situation, no exceptions. - Original Message - From: Michael Gian [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: biofuel@sustainablelists.org Sent: Friday, April 21, 2006 8:55 PM Subject: Re: [Biofuel] I always new they were worthless Once again I repeat myself, this time with the transcript attached to keep anyone who cares on track.

Re: [Biofuel] A little (more) clarification
Hi Bob Hi Keith, I'm sure you misunderstood the thread. I went back and had a look. It definitely says a little more clarification. You didn't just reply, you swamped me with several hours reading and chasing of urls linked to urls linked to... :) Anyway, you get the picture. :-) What did that guy say? I'd have written you a shorter letter but I didn't have the time. Knocked out by the revelation of your family connection to Groote Schuur. I'd be eating my heart out if it were me. I didn't want what would have come with it. I'd probably just have sold it like Abraham did and mooched off anyway, and left nothing for the descendants, nor any descendants not to leave it to either. As it was I found the house and garden highly evocative, soaked in an ambience of something not quite definable other than the very powerful feel that real people had coped with some very real and major issues there. An item I didn't include in my last post was the Nat Party junket at the house which featured the very public release of another of those glossy spindoctoring brochures about South Africa. The Minister of Information (yes, the very same who presided over the Information scandal) Connie Mulder? Sounds more like Eschel Rhoodie, but he was the Secretary not the Minister. Anyway... decided to make it a big event with foreign and local press, plus as many members of the cabinet and their wives as he could assemble. He chose the main hall at Groote Schuur, lined it with the notables, placed we scruffier sprigs of the Fourth Estate furthest from the bar and launched into his spin. My attention wandered slightly. Something at the edge of my peripheral vision was bothering me. I focused. It was Cecil himself, in that famous Cape painting, staring down from the wall at the far end. He was looking directly at the speaker's back with such an expression of outrage that I snorted loudly, nudged the journo next to me who passed on the joke. Soon half the press corp was snorting and giggling, so much so that the Speaker stopped and stared us into silence. I quickly shot a pic with a vague idea of working a satirical angle into the story. I kid you not, when the darkroom boys later send the pic down to the newsroom there was none of the quality my imagination had imbued. Rhodes was not even looking at the speaker and his expression was as lugubrious as ever. So much for mindset. The camera lied. Nice story, thanks. Thanks for the Orwell piece, some interesting points raised though I've always thought if he'd got himself laid more we could have been spared his excursions into literary criticism. I like his criticism. It must be 40 years since I first read that book, I think it's lasted well. I share Orwell's views on Kipling. He made one important point about Kipling's work: while the Rudyards have long ceased from Kipling and the Haggards ride no more his epigrammatic phrases still sprinkle the language while the critics have been forgotten. Well, Orwell and Eliot haven't been forgotten. Didn't you agree with what Orwell said about Kipling's written-in working-class accents? I wouldn't put Rider Haggard in the same box as Kipling. They were friends, and both were creatures of empire and of their times, but it doesn't go much further than that. I don't think Kipling's work was admired by Jung as was Haggard's, for instance, nor did Kipling write a masterly account of rural England and agriculture as did Haggard, nor could he have. Haggard has depths that aren't found in Kipling, and he wasn't an apologist. Kipling has faded more than Haggard has. Haggard hasn't really faded such a lot. A colonial administrator in South Africa 120 years ago who held strong views that blacks should rule themselves has some staying power. Quite a lot of Haggard has staying power, for quite a wide range of reasons. With Kipling, as Orwell says, it's mostly just children's books and the free fatty phrases that remain, and many of the phrases might as well have been written by Anon. I think Kipling's views and his world are as dated as the Pears Soap ad. You have to laugh at it now but it probably seemed perfectly normal and virtuous to Kipling. Give them Empire and Pears Soap, it's for their own good whether they like it or not. (Not to mention the Great Unwashed.) Empire and Soap might be an evolution of the Sword and the Bible, or just the Sword, but it hardly points the way forward, we've moved on since then even if some of our governments haven't. Africa renewed [Haggard's] faith in a world beyond conventional religion, and gave him a sense of morality greater than the narrow-minded White man's burden Enlightenment common-place, so pervasive among colonial writers. Instead in Haggard's works it is the white man who is in need of ministering and Africa that provides the enlightenment. - John Senior, Rhodes University, 1996. If that seems improbable, have you read Kurt Vonnegut's report from
