Hello,
I've often heard it said that small scale biodiesel production is

biodiesel production has diseconomies of scale. I'm trying to find

Yours is a very broad parameter.
Perhaps what would serve best to start is to establish "What it is that can
best be achieved with each scale and are those achievements in line with
sound economics?"

Pierre,
We've seen a similar type of result before, but not when working
with a 100% SVO. In that case it was an oil that was rich in animal
tallow. The white layer was unconverted fats.
If you want to figure out what that center layer is and what
happened, I'd suggest a couple of things.

Hi mark, I emailed you about an equipment building class in Atascadero, and

Hey Pierre,
All very peculiar for virgin canola. The fulcrum between a reaction and no
reaction is almost razor thin and should have only left you with fuel and
the "glycerin cocktail."
Look forward to seeing the pics.

I understand that the increase in NOx when burning biodiesel/SVO

effective advancement of the timing as the fatty fuels will not compress
