be made from a bushel of corn it gives two examples one results in 1.5lbs of

About testing BioD with copper, and to avoid the interference of other
metals.
You could find very easy, a pure source of copper metal, over 99 %.
It is a new, clean, soft copper wire used as electrical conductor. Just
remove the plastic insulation and rub its surface with some steel knife.

But is it possible to grow oil palm in the corn belt? Not that I'd grow
corn for oil anyway, rapeseed would be much better, but anyway...

Corn has a very low percentage of oil in the seed so 129 lbs over an
acre where the average yield in corn is about 150 bushels or 8400 lbs
makes corn only about 1-2% oil which means that it is extremely hard
to extract.
An acre of palm would produce that much since each tree produces

At first, I sympathized with YBD's plight, a sort of common reaction of
sympathy for the "little guy". But on further reflection, I have to agree
with Dana's assessment.

Not to say you did a bad test or anything, but, the new copper / zinc
pennies react to alot of chemicals because of the zinc. A better test would
have been:
1) An old true copper penny.
2) A clean 1 inch section of copper pipe (better yet).

I'm not a chemist but I have seen copper react with biodiesel.
I placed a US penny ( copper/zinc ) in a pint of biodiesel.
In 2 months it turned black.
I would test bd on a copper sample before commiting to a copper

Somewhere on the Web I ran across a bd compatibility chart.
It listed w
That is something that I never figured out, how do they get oil from
something that to my way of thinking is basicly oilless (corn)?

Gosh, Hoagy, good going! And I've got that VITA paper too...

Thanks John.
Is there any small biodiesel units available? Is it possible to make one? If
yes, where can I find information?
