Excellent presentation sir, especially about the use of turmeric as a non hazmat indicator. Any vids you can pass along regarding glycerin refining? I am using a distillation process which uses up too much energy and time. Thanks again.
Truly a Great Chemistry Lesson.
(I was a lab tech while I was a student at Ohio State so I know how important it is to be engaging when teaching)
Good Tip for humid environments - such as the Philippines
Fantastic explanation. Thank you.
@TheWindMillMan I'm not familiar enough with that engine to give a recommendation on it. You might try on the Biodiesel Discussion forum though & posting the question there as there's lots of folks from your area posting there on a regular basis.
thank you, you have made the best instructional video on making biodiesel that I have seen. I am a chemistry student and I am going to start making biodiesel.
thanks. looks great already.
That was very helpful. THANK YOU!!
Great information, thanks...
TY Mr Blair for your work, Im wondering whether it might be possible to design a system for a diesel -electric hybrid automobile which would allow the driver/owner to purchase all the ingredients needed eg crystal drano , corn oil , rubbing alcoholand distilled water then put each of those individual ingredients in their own " tanks" " dispensers? " then the " machine" located in the trunk i guess would determine how much of each ingredient needs to be dispensed and when the goal being to supply
15 year old red fenol from our pool test kit, which is pretty old still works fine and has given us a clear clean pool year on year.
Thank you kindly, sir. What about the apparatus you display at the end of the presentation
tank you utahbiodieselsupply!
@Wurdswurth Yes. You heard right. 6.0 liter diesels & Biodiesel don't do too well together. The older 7.3 liters though LOVE the stuff!! Cummins & Duramax engines do well on Biodiesel as well. Stay away from anything 2007 or newer due to DPF (diesel particulate filter) issues (biodiesel will dilute the engine oil leading to pre-mature engine damage). See our site utahbio dot com for a link to the issue.
Does Utah Biodiesel have any curriculum available to agriculture teachers? I have a couple of students who want to explore making fuel for the school buses in our school district. We have made a couple of small batches with good success, but would like to have some materials to use in the classroom.
enough finished product fuel to keep the car going down the road and or charge the battery system if conditions warrant that the car must be stopped for a bit ? I'm assuming brand new oil gotten at wal mart for eg along with the rest of the ingredients and Im guessing that there would be a " waste tank " of some kind that would hold the accumulated glycerine and used water until such time as the car driver can dispose of it properly . Do you suppose such a system might be possible? TY again
is there a video on the chemistry part?
Hi there G,
I drive a Land Rover Discovery 3 TDV6, would bio cause any short or long term issues for this I do believe its a Peugeot engine LR used, as the miles per gallon on the wee 3 tonne beasty in the hills of Scotland can empty your pockets every week.

Can Sir use this traitretion process in animal fat oil ?
which type of oil works best and why?
So the mixture in the 2 liter bottle is simply untested biodiesel?
I would really apreciate if you could doe avideo on how to brew biodisel using ethanol and sodium hiroxide(allso on 90 something percetnt). Thank you!
is this also about hemp?
Very nice video. Is a 2002 7.3L powerstroke a good candidate for biodiesel?
That's an EXCELLENT candidate for Biodiesel! It's one of the vehicles we personally burn the biodiesel we make in too! Great engine!
Cool idea's. I'd love to have a diesel-electric hybrid. VW made one in the late 80's/early 90's, but it never went anywhere (diesel was so cheap back then, no one cared).
HI! Great video, Ilearned a few new triks, but you see.... I have a problem concernig the Methanol!!! I do not have access to it in my country, but I doe have access to regular Ethanol in difrent concentrationes, from 92% to 99.9... %. I could not finde a lot of info on how to titrate a batch using ethanol and sodium hidroxide, to theese two I can have access, I tried to make a few batches, bu one of them I had to re react and the second did not eaven react.
cheers G
HEy I have a question. Seeing as fuel oil for home heating is merely DYED DIESEL fuel, would i be able to use biodiesel to heat my home with an oil funace.
Hello i made biodiesel but it fail in 3/27 test . how do i again react this biodiesel
Does olive oil work with this?
Did I hear that right @ 49:12? You would not put biodiesel in a 6 liter Ford diesel? Is there any other diesel engines that shouldn't take biodiesel?
That would be difficult to do as you need settling time & driving in a car would just mix it all back up. Also, the fuel once settled, still needs to be washed. The closest we've seen someone come is a trailer with a complete biodiesel processor set up in the back for portability.
hello
may i know what experimental method you use to separate the glycerin from biodiesel?
can i use sodium methoxide instead of NaOH or KOH ?
I just let it settle and then gently turn the bottle over and drain off the glycerin.
Yes. You can use NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) instead of KOH. Use a base of 5.5 and be sure & titrate with Sodium Hydroxide if you do.
thank you ....
But which is better sodium hydroxide or sodium methoxide ?
mohd baker Sodium Hydroxide is the chemical we mix with methanol to make methoxide. So we start with sodium hydroxide (solid catalyst), mix it with methanol and it becomes sodium methoxide; which we then use to make biodiesel. So, technically we use both. We dissolve the sodium hydroxide into methanol to make sodium methoxide and then use the sodium methoxide to make the biodiesel. As for which is better, NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) or KOH (Potassium Hydroxide), both can be dissolved in methanol to make methoxide. KOH tends to dissolve easier though.
hello i m very interested in this am from UK,
i have been doing it in my van for a while been doing 50 veg oil and 50 percent diesel
there seems a lot that i have to learn, can you just add lye 70g and methanol 3 litres mix it up then put into 20 liters
Yes. When Biodiesel is produced & tested under ASTM, they actually do a test for corrosiveness. If it's too corrosive (wears metal on metal), it flunks.
Will i need to titrate castor oil ? New oil that is .... preferably i will be using NaOH as a catalyst
On the issue of the " waste tank " I was thinking it would be best if it were of a " disposable plastic type " wherin your car simply wont go anymore if you dont have this sealed container replaced at a registered auto shop and replaced with a new one ? The stuff inside isnt necessarily " waste" either it can be processed into soaps or anti-freeze or what have you ? Well such would be the goal anyhow ? Again ty so much for trying to save the world , much as it doesnt deserve it , good luck
9:03 not to mention it's safer. you add acids and bases to water not the other way around to prevent flash boiling.
Sir please help me to learn...... because .....can you make me population....and which colour is perfect for understanding the neutralize the fatty acid
Everyone, why do I do it but it doesn't split layers and it's crowded? I used the correct ratio
Nice
This mettar available in hindi
Biodiesel works in all diesel engines
I know this ....its even works in wabasto heaters??? and my gasoil heating system ....have you looked at it being a solvent rather than a lubricant bringing into account metal to metal wear??? and eating alloy piston heads
cheers TWMM
How does it work when you use Sodium Methoxide???
CH3NaO
There is no info on UA-cam about that stuff.
I think you might mean Sodium Methylate. If that's the case, there's not much available on how to use it. It's a product that's used in commercial production plants and not easily accessible for small scale personal biodiesel.
However, if you mean using sodium hydroxide with methanol, that's just mixing it together using a standard titration (as I outline in the video above). You can also stop by our website (utah biodiesel supply-do a google search for it) and look up our titration method
I am from India ..sir can you teach me tatration ... Calculation method I try but I didn't get ....... results
what about a 6.6 liter diesel engine on a 1960's tractor?
you made hard work of that man!! something so simple you made look very complicated :/
Barry Wilson yea atleast he explains it well
No he didn't he made it sound complicated
This guy is Walter White with biodiesel wonder if he makes his in an RV in the desert?
T-T_E=Tm+gly
ive never drunk the stuff though lol
Goggles would be a good idea.... but I'm a lab safety disciplinarian.
dont forget safety goggles..
because you are not @@@@@@ sure you are not doing it youre self and putting it in your car ,,,,
people who titrate twice or more they dont know what they are doing,,,, !!!!!
biodiesel is easy to make,,, i made it for 4 years now,,, you just making it so complicated,,,,, it doesnt help for the ordinary people
Yes. Look for the presentation from John Bush. He does a whole section on the chemistry of Biodiesel
Yes. You may have to change the pressure on your fuel pump and change out the nozzle, but it works great.
For ethanol made bio, I believe you need to use about 30% ethanol. Google biodieseldiscussion. It's an online biodiesel forum. Once there, go to the Biodiesel section and then to the ethanol section. They give details on how to do it properly
Yep. works great! You have to tweak the pump and the fuel nozzle a bit, but it works exceptionally well in home heating systems.
Hello sir good morning ....sir ...I am science student in biology....but sir my interest is chemical formation.......I want to learn from you can you help me.....,
It's mainly because it's not a plentiful crop in these countries. There have been some people that have attempted to grow it (in Texas), but it didn't do very well. Soybeans and Canola seeds though are much more plentiful so that's usually what it's made from in these countries. It's extremely rare to see Jatropha though here in the US.
Yep.
Unless they have DPF's installed on them that utilize post-combustion injection cleaning systems (sprays raw diesel fuel in the cylinder after the combustion stroke to vaporize fuel & make it travel down to the DPF cleanse it). Biodiesel doesn't vaporize real well & ends up diluting engine oil in these systems. So much so that you have to watch it very carefully or risk haing really high oil dilution levels; which can damage the engines.
Yes. Contact us at our site or email us info at utahbio dot com and we'll give you more details.
