I have seen clear Bio-Diesel from the Awwcid - Base proces getting cloudy(hazy) when I mix It with regular Diesel when I want to produce B20 or higher.

When I heat It to approx 40 ¡C or filtrate with Seitz K1000 filtrationplates It becomes clear again. I have determined the water-content of the BD with a Karl Fisher titrator to be approx. 0.3%.

My theory is that a component of the BD is not solluable in regular Diesel and by mixing them can be filtered out, because by adding more BD It gets cloudy again and by adding more regular Diesel It stays clear.

Can someone confirm this theory?

It warmed up, and, what ever it was that was making it cloudy went back in to solution. My guess is that you didn't have a complete reaction, I say this because of your low PH, if I remember right, good BioDiesel has a near neutral Ph ( 7 ).

Did you let it cool down and if so did it become cloudy again?

I wonder why it stayed cloudy untill it sat in the sun for a couple of minutes. Any ideas?
