I also had some trouble in the beginning. I
now use a settling drum I found the design on J T F and it works very well. I collect
my wvo in the wee hours on my way to work and have collected 20+ gal of water in
40 gal pickup. I drain the pure water out after a few hours of settling then
heat the balance to 120 f and drain it once more. The separation drum has 2
drain valves one on the bottom and one about 6 inches off the bottom. That where
I get a nice clean product fro processing. It may seem that the energy used is
a waste but I find it is better than 120 liters of failure. Good luck Derick From:

Behalf Of Lee Eady, D.C. I am just getting started making BD. I have had some
trouble getting all the water removed from the WVO. Is it a must to heat
the oil if so how hot, how long? Will it settle out on its own if just
sits if so how long do I need to let it settle? Any info will be appreciated. |
