In my search for local sources of lye, I came across several hardware stores (Home Depot, ACE, OSH) which carry "concentrated sulfuric acid." If memory serves (I didn't pay close attention) it was for cleaning septic tank lines, not drains, but was in the drain cleaner section of the store. I don't know if the label "concentrated sulfuric acid" is standardized, but I thought it meant 95%-98%. It was a liquid in a dark plastic bottle with a further sealed plastic bag around it, with a warning label affixed to the outer bag. Something to check out, anyway. -Johnathan _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
