    Bio diesel emits exactly as much CO2 as regular diesel. The difference is that the carbon came from the air in the first place rather than from fossil sources. So it's not increasing the CO2 in the air. Like the difference between burning coal and burning trees.

    Good God, how long have they been using that oil to cook with?
    At about 0:30 looks really nasty coming out of the bucket.
    We change ours once a week and it never looks that bad.

    well. as a fair comparison you have to consider the energy and cost of extracting crude oil from underground, shipping it to wherever you are, and the energy used to turn it into usable oil as well. I think fundamentally the argument is that biodiesel is more "carbon neutral" as it introduces less CO2 into the air.

    @bchbear539 Probably over 2 weeks bars are known to used there oil for that long without changing it while chinese restaurants change it pretty much every day...!

    What kind of catalyst it was used in this reaction between oil and methanol?

    • @MonkeyDLuffy-xr4fl
      @MonkeyDLuffy-xr4fl 9 років тому +1

      Ronison Souza Permanganate or Chromate probably, they are strong oxidants. Or perhaps Sulfuric acid, as an acidic catalyst. Has to be one of the three.

    Well, in 2011 biodiesel sure NOT costed "more than fossil diesel" at least for the end customer. Higher price - is a sure show stopper for any BD producer.

    Actually since about 2008 Bio Fuel has been cheaper than regular diesel but finding a place that sells it is hard....!

      In my plant we have an anaerobic digester to deal with the food waste, then the biogas produced is burnt using CHP engine to produce power and heat. We use this to power sre production and we also recover a lot of the heat for other processes on the plant

  • @feelitworking

    Lots of garages mix it with regular diesel as biodiesel is so cheap here in the UK. No one uses biodiesel because it ruins modern turbo diesel engines. It's fine in a 20year old Volvo but will kill a new Ford Focus. The acidity needs to be controlled too as biodiesel eats the rubber seals and fuel pumps are not cheap. We can already make SAFE & CHEAP synthetic oils and diesel fuels, so why does SHELL, ESSO etc rely on the Middle East so much? We could stop buying oil from them right now.

    Sooo, they want us to believe that it is good for the enviroment to have a large diesel guzzling tanker truck drive around to various restaurants Collection a few gallons of oil and use lots of energy to refine it.
    Seems to me that the amount of energy wasted on Collection, filtering and processing of the oil will be larger than then gained energy.

      How do we know that the oil collection truck isnt run on biodiesel? There are far better and more efficient ways to go about producing biodiesel but still this is likely far less expensive than collecting, refining and transporting regular diesel all over the country (being that this could be made locally)
