Hello,
Still playing catch-up with the archives, but just noticed some talk
late august about high pressure hydrogen storage. It was poo-poo'ed as
unrealistic due to the enormous pressures (200 bar) involved, making it
unsaleable due to liability issues.

other hand, is priced between $.20 - .34/lb [14], which makes it more
expensive to make isopropyl esters. However, the yield for isopropyl
esters is about 10% more than methyl esters because of the heavier
molecular weight. So, this partially compensates for the increased
cost.

by International (used to be Maxion, Brazil) which i am told is a
further development of the 300tdi Rover engine.

possible.
Has anyone on-list converted their rover to diesel?

Have a meeting on Monday with a SS tank manufacturer. Will go to a
scrap yard tomorrow to see what's available.
Comments on a good way to scale up to 4000 liter size batches?
Is anyone on this list making lots of fuel in batches?
Am excited/terrified :
those doing large batches would be
much appreciated, as i am clearly aware of being in over my head...
