Hello,
I've been trying to find technical info on the use of ethanol in the
biodiesel manufacturing process, with no luck. I've been discussing the
possibility of a small-scale plant that produced both biodiesel and
ethanol, using agricultural raw materials (we are lucky in California -

Hello,
I've been trying to find technical info on the use of ethanol in the
biodiesel manufacturing process, with no luck.
There's quite a lot of info in the archives, and more here:

Keith,
I too found information on the process of creating methanol from syn-gas
(CO, CO2, H2):

Although I could not find out how the natural gas is transformed into
the syngas, I did
find some information on destructive distillation:
Since it is so difficult to make BioDiesel with ethanol, how hard would
it be to make methanol at home? I know that methanol is a by-product of
ethanol distillation of fruits containing high concentrations of pectin,
is there a way to exploit this fact and make just methanol?

One of our project members has requested that I
investigate the possability of methanol production
using corn cobs as a feedstock.
Consisting of mainly cellulose I imagine that a
destructive distillation might be the route to go.
Does anyone have a lead for more information on
