I did some research and found a comment on choice of material for the Bio-Diesel Reactor: "Aluminum is not suited for methoxide, as the caustic methoxide will corrode the aluminum. Biodiesel does not react with aluminum but leftover catalyst and methanol in the fuel will, making it not the ideal material for the application." (reactor vessel) I am unclear if there will be practical consequences of polishing Bio-diesel with a raw aluminum centrifuge. So, I suggest you try it and post your results...

Sorry for no pics Leon, Every time I think I have time someone tells me I don't.( Three year old daughter). Just wanted to let you know how impressed I am with this system. I have about 1600 miles on it and have had no problems except one plugged filter. I am starting to think that the one thing I may be missing from diesel is the additives. any suggestions on the subject, fuel additives, water injection,ATF ( not the agency ) maybe even an HHO system. I would appreciate any input on the subject Tha...

Viton seals are good idea. but do you know if washed biodiesel has any reactions with aluminum material? i assume the centrifuge rotor and enclosure are made of aluminum. i have biopro 190, i am planning to clean the wvo using Leon's centrifuge before pumping to the reactor. I have some other filters (cuno ct101 and racor marine water filter) to clean the end product. if the centrifuge is compatible with washed biodiesel then i would end up using centrifuge....

Honestly I am no expert here but I have toured an industrial sized plan and they run the feedstock through a centrifuge before the reaction for sure. I am pretty sure that they run it through the centrifuge post reaction also, after they vacuumed off the methanol, but I am not sure. What I do know for sure is that I am working on getting all Viton seals for the centrifuge so that it holds up to whatever you want to do with it. Leon...

I'm sold on the centrifuge idea. I've purchased a BioPro 190 and curious to know if it would be best to filter the wvo prior to process or after production to polish the biodiesel?...

That thing is a work of art! Use this chart to calculate your G force produced. Multiply the data on this chart by your radius to get the resultant G force. http://www.wvodesigns.com/images/fbfiles/images/cf_calculations.jpg...

Well It works. I can not spin it faster then 2500 RPM as it starts to shake way more then I like. It does take a bit of stuff out of the oil and what remains in the bowl is pretty thick stuff. I have attached a couple of photos and a video of it slowing down. http://www.wvodesigns.com/images/fbfiles/images/2.jpg http://www.wvodesigns.com/images/fbfiles/files/mov00032.zip It is just a prototype so now I plan on moving on to a machined one with a smaller diameter and faster RPM.

CHAN:
A major race has just come to a close in Athens, Greece. But what makes this trip different from most is that not a single penny was spent on fuel. Let's see how they did it.


STORY:
They've driven to Athens all the way from London - nothing too unusual about that - except these motors are running on reused cooking oil. Environmental enthusiasts - keen to promote the virtues of cheap and eco-friendly bio-fuels - have been taking part in a 4,000 kilometer rally across Europe.

It sounds a little far-fetched but apparently it's very simple to convert your engine.

[Ben Mayo, Fuel Converter System Designer]:
"This is a converted engine, it looks much the same as a regular engine. There's a few minor adjustments, this is the heat exchanger - that is what heats the fuel up and make it nice and hot and ready for injection into the engine."

The ten day mission involved some pretty good bargaining skills - the team managed to obtain used cooking oils from restaurant, cafes and fast-food joints along the way.

[Andy Pag, Organizer, Grease to Greece]:
"We have been surprised at how easy it has been. The problem has been actually finding places that have oil and arriving at the right moment before its been collected or taken away. But actually when people have had oil they have been really really willing to give it and let us have it. I mean it's a waste product for them so we are taking away their rubbish, really."

It isn't the first time that organizer Andy Pag has taken part in such folly - last year he drove to Mali in western Africa in a truck powered by waste chocolate.

[Andy Pag, Organizer, Grease to Greece]:
"When I first put vegetable oil in the car I was really worried (I thought) Oh my god is it going to work? Is it going to blow the car up? I have now done over I think 6000 miles on vegetable oil and I have had absolutely no ill effects at all."

So, what next for this experienced eco-traveler you might ask? Well, he's planning a globe-trotting adventure using aviation fuel made from recycled plastic bags.

And if he happens to persuade a few people to convert to cooking oil then his mission will be all the more successful.

Its got to be liquid to start with, thats for sure. Someone needs to kick my ass to develop the "bolt on" inline oil heater for the centrifuge. In the mean time the pipe heater works really well; the whole assembly gets almost too hot to touch ~ 150F and the oil rolls out looking almost good enough to eat...almost....

There are probably a lot of people thinking about this right now and maybe soon no source of grease because all the burger joints have sold theirs. Maybe there are some groups studying this.

· Deaths per year resulting from legal drugs: 106,000
· Deaths that have ever occurred in direct result of Cannabis: 0 (that's right zero)

FACT

· Farming 6\% of the continental U.S. acreage with biomass crops (Hemp) would provide all of America's Energy needs.
· Biomass can be converted into methane, methanol, or gasoline (which could eliminate our ties with the Middle East) at a cost comparable to petroleum and hemp is much better for the environment.
· Hemp fuel burns clean. Petroleum causes acid rain due to sulfur pollution.
· The use of Hemp Fuel does not contribute to global warming

FACT

· Hemp seed can be pressed into nutritious oil, which contains the highest amount of fatty acids in the plant kingdom. Essential oils are responsible for our immune system responses, and can clear the arteries of cholesterol and plaque.
· The byproduct of pressing the oil from hemp seed is a high quality protein seed cake. It can be used to bake into cakes, breads and casseroles. Hemp seed protein is one of mankind's finest, most complete, and available-to-the body vegetable proteins.
· A Vegan or vegetarian can get all of the days required protein from a handful of hemp seed.

FACT

· Hemp is the oldest cultivated fiber plant in the world.
· Low-THC fiber hemp varieties developed by the French and others have been available for over 20 years. It is impossible to get high from fiber hemp. Over 600,000 acres of hemp is grown worldwide with no misuse problem.
· One acre of hemp can produce as much usable fiber as 4 acres of trees or two acres of cotton.
· Trees cut down take 50-500 years to grow, while hemp can be cultivated in as little as 100 days and can yield 4 times more paper over a 20 year period.
· Until 1883, from 75-90\% of all paper in the world was made with cannabis hemp fiber including that for books, Bibles, maps, paper money, stocks and bonds, newspapers, etc.
· Hemp paper is longer lasting than wood pulp, stronger, acid-free, and chlorine free (Chlorine is estimated to cause up to 10\% of all Cancers).
· Hemp paper can be recycled 7 times, wood pulp 4 times.
· Hemp particleboard may be up to 2 times stronger than wood particleboard and holds nails better.
· Hemp is a softer, warmer, and more water absorbent, than cotton and doesn't stretch out.
· Half of the U.S. pesticides are used to treat cotton, while hemp has a natural pesticide.

FACT

· Almost any product that can be made from wood, cotton, or petroleum (including plastics) can be made from hemp. There are 25,000 known uses for hemp.
· For thousands of years virtually all good paints and varnishes were made with hemp seed oil and/or linseed oil.
· One acre of hemp produces as much cellulose fiber pulp as 4.1 acres of trees, making hemp a perfect material to replace trees for pressed board, particle board, and concrete construction molds.
· Heating and compressing plant fibers can create a practical, inexpensive, fire-resistant constructions material with excellent thermal and sound-insulating qualities.
· In 1941 Henry Ford built a plastic car made of fiber from hemp and wheat straw. Hemp is biodegradable, as synthetic plastic is not.

FACT

· Presidents Washington and Jefferson both grew hemp. Americans were legally bound to grow hemp during the Colonial Era and Early Republic.
