The Bio-Power network at http://www.northwales.org.uk/bio-power/index.htm have been working extensively on this approach for some time with apparently good results. One word of warning there has been trouble with a damaged incremental angle sensor within a Bosch VP44 injector pump due to delamination when using an alcohol fuel blend. Bosch warn against using Ethanol blended fuels in this IP. Other chemical/material incompatibility or other problems may occur so this approach should be considered somewhat more experimental than biodiesel. Also search the archieves using - blends or solvent. > -----Original Message----- > From: benjinsl [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 27 May 2003 22:33 > To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [biofuel] SVO emulsion > > > Hi All, > I've been looking through the archives here and a few other > discussion groups and haven't found anything extensive on the topic > of emulsions using straight vegetable oil.
