Helo to gobie ,Paul and Miller
We are interested to design the use of solar enegy instead of wood as
fuel and looking for the innovative design. Is there any one who already have
done this design for recirculation using thermo siphon without pump , solar
heating, product separation on the top using cyclone and recirculation of
catalyst.Will this method useful compared to conventional method. A good
discussion and exchange of practical work in this field can be much useful
tall of us .Can our Keith bring here some new information and any one new
internet sites , smallscale experiments

Jim I'm planning on upscaling to reactor using an old gear pump (available,
not choice).
Intend to pump from bottom to top, temperature maintained by either
electrical element from cloths drier strapped to metal pipe or coil of pipe
in tub of hot water.
Interesting that you intend to draw from below surface and deliver to
bottom. What advantages do you think that would have and how would you stop
the methanol and catalyst rich glycerine from settling below the input from
the circular manifold. My intention is to keep the glycerine mixed in
throughout the mixing time to allow all the reactants to bump into each
other.
