[Biofuel] Testing H2O in Methanol

Does any one know of a good test to determine the amount of water in methanol? Joe were you working on something like this? Jim ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists

It's polymerisation Tom, IMHO. Soy biodiesel doesn't need much encouragement to polymerise. Sorry this happened to you! >like an idiot put a copper fuel line into the barrel that I was >using to store BD. The copper that was in contact w the BD has a >dark coating on it ... sort of patina. Is

I am more inclined to think bacteria. I dont think polymerization proceeds very quickly at room temperature. Since the tank was full and basically sealed the water is probably a metabolic product of some bacteria and not condensation.   My 2 cents   KirkThomas Kelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

[Biofuel] Copper and Polymerization?

Help!      I plan to heat my house with BD this winter. I have two 55 gal barrels T'd into the fuel line. About 3 months ago I filled one of the barrels with quality-tested BD.  Before filling the second barrel a couple of days ago I removed some of the stored BD, and to my dismay it wa
