How much is salvageable? Chemist showed me a "salting out" trick on a bad batch we made. It saved a few hundred dollars of hemp seed oil from being turned completely into soap. On micro-scale, dissolve 2 tbsp table salt into 1 pint water. Add a cup of your "goo," agitate vigorously, let set 24 hours and see what settles where.

[biofuel] biod failure :(
Hi all. I started a trial run yesterday and all seemed well , until I washed it today. I got loads of soap. I now realized what went wrong. The pipe between the filter tank and reactor had at least 1 litre of water in as I had done a few cycles using water to test the system. I had dissambled the main parts and completely dried everything, except for the pipe. I'm doing another run in the next few days.
