5 Gallon Pail of 99.5+% Propylene Glycol Food Grade USP Kosher List Price: $299.95 Sale Price: $129.95 |
|
"Propylene glycol is a viscous, oily fluid which is commonly used in many products. We use it as an antifreeze in our solar water heating applications. Food grade propylene glycol is safe for drinking and is non-toxic. If your system fails or leaks and mixes with your water supply, there is no need to worry about the effects from drinking it incase the leak is not discovered immediately. In the case of ethylene glycol, someone drinking the fluid risks the chances of poisoning and even death. Propylene glycol also does not have corrosivity to metals like ethylene glycol does and it is better for the environment. It can be used as an antifreeze in many other applications such as automobiles and refrigeration.This product is commonly known as a Food Chill propylene glycol, widely used when involving foods and food refrigeration. For antifreeze applications, we recommend using no more than a 60% by weight solution in distilled water. Water has a high specific heat capacity, so only the appropriate percentage should be use to prevent freezing and boiling. Excessive use of propylene glycol will cause the antifreeze to lose its ability to retain sudden increases in heat and often cause system failure, especially in vehicles. (This is the same rule for ethylene glycol as all) Use the following table as a guide for your antifreeze application. Solution (% by mass) 10 20 30 40 50 60 Freeze Temp (º F) 26 18 7 -8 -29 -55 Boiling Temp (º F) 212 213 216 219 222 225" |

Tired of high gas prices? Want to save the earth? Want to support local economies and clean the air while getting high performance out of your vehicle? Try Biodiesel. It's clean, sustainable, domestic, renewable AND you can make it at home!!! Wave farewell to petroleum.
Amidst the hybrid hype, there has been little mention of one of the oldest 'alternative' fuels with some tremendous advantages. Invented and patented by Rudolf Diesel in 1893, diesel engines were first made to run on various vegetable oils. Thus, almost any diesel engine outfitted with the right hoses is capable of cleaner, vegan, non-petroleum based Biodiesel operation. (Most newer diesels have the right hoses).
Diesels have tremendous advantages. Although their pricepoint can be somewhat higher initially, it's well worth it in the long run. Diesel engines are well known for their consistent reliability, length of engine life, and perhaps most importantly, their fuel economy. In our ever-growing awareness of planetary resources and taking geopolitical circumstances into account, fuel economy is beginning to take a place of primacy.
When running on biodiesel, there are tremendous emissions benefits as well. Traditional dinosaur-diesel powered engines have gotten a bad rap for their dark, smoky exhaust, smell and pollution of our air. Biodiesel, on the other hand, reduces emissions significantly in every category in which pollutants are measured except nitrous oxide (NOx) which can be adjusted with some slight modifications. Unlike their petroleum powered counterparts, biodiesel exhaust smells pleasantly like the feedstock of whatever vegetable oil is used. (There are tales of people who have used recycled fryer oil for their biodiesel from their local doughnut shop and subsequently end up with visions of Krispy Kreme.)
Performance wise, biodiesel has a higher lubricity than conventional diesel, subsequently acting as a bit of an 'enema' for the engine, cleaning out the dinosaur residue, so be sure and replace the fuel filter after the first couple of tanks of biodiesel. After that, because biodiesel is so clean burning, it actually may reduce maintenance costs and extend engine life.
Europe, which has traditionally been more diesel-heavy than the US, (currently diesels occupy about 40 % of the European market) has recently increased its emissions standards and subsequently the use of biodiesel has taken off in a big way. Europeans are supporting the growth of the biodiesel industry through farming subsidies of biodiesel feedstocks unknown in the US until this week when Oregon introduced a similar bill in their State Legislature.
Another tremendous advantage of Biodiesel is its blend-ability. Biodiesel can be used straight (called B100) or blended in any percentage with conventional #2 diesel, and even at low percentages (B5 or B10) has incredible emissions benefits. Subsequently, if you're out traveling and don't have access to homemade or storebought biodiesel, you can use regular diesel in your tank with no conversion issues.
There are an ever-growing number of biodiesel filling stations available if you don't have space or interest in making your own. Check with [http://www.biodiesel.org] for more information of what's available in your area. For more biodiesel resources see http://www.EcoNurse.com.
On a personal note, I've been running my VW Jetta TDI (Turbo Diesel Injection) on Biodiesel (mostly B100) for the last three years with only good things to say. It's been trouble-free and now it's actually pleasant to have the sunroof open. And if your outdated ideas suggest that diesels compromise performance or speed, feel free to sniff my doughnuts

Home Biodiesel Production Part 2
Now that we’ve filtered our oil, we’re now going to make a batch of biodiesel. And we want to show you what you do. We now have filtered oil. I have oil in a 55 gallon drum, and I’m going to put oil into this machine. Inside this machine it has marks that tell me the different sizes, and so I will transport this oil in using this big behemoth. Click it on, and then we can start the flow by turning the power on. I’ve already preloaded this machine full of oil, but basically this suck pump would suck the oil up, and put it into this machine. Once the oil is in here then we’re ready to get started with the batch. Remember it takes methanol, and lye, and we use a secret ingredient, we use sulfuric acid and I’ll tell you what that’s for in a minute.
After we’ve loaded our oil into this machine it’s now time to load the chemicals and everything else needed to get it going. Our next is to put methanol into these quarts up here. So I’m going to climb up here, and what we have is; one quart for our methanol, one quart for our methoxide, which is going to be our combination of sodium or potassium hydroxide, we’re going to use potassium hydroxide in this case, and some methanol. I have some handy gauges on the side here that let me know when I get the amount of methanol I’ve needed, into the machine so I’m just going to step down here for a moment, put my methanol in the barrel, and I’m going to chug away, with a pump, then I’ll get methanol into our machine here.
What you see now is a gauge that’s coming up. You’re able to see that we can fill this full of methanol. This tank is going to be used for what we call our estarification process which is where we use sulfuric acid. We’ll show you that in a minute, but for now it’s time to get the methanol into the machine.
The next step that we’re going to do is we’re going to measure out some chemicals. It’s really important that you wear something to protect your face and hands because what we’re about to do is really nasty. Using a scale, we’re going to way out enough catalyst to make our biodiesel with. I have tarred my scale, and what that means is I’ve set it to zero so I know how much I’m putting in. I’m going to bring this up to 1600 grams and I’m going to do it again. So my goal is to put 4800 grams of catalyst into that machine. So with that, we’re going to take it over and put it in.
The next step is to put the catalyst into the machine. This is a very careful process of making sure all the stuff in the pitcher just gets into the machine. It generates lots of dust. It’s kind of gross. It’s basically annoying, but it’s a necessary evil. I have to do this a couple more times and then we’ll be ready to start a batch.
So we’ve got now a certain amount of catalyst in here, and we’re now going to introduce methanol. A chemical reaction is going to occur. I’ll top that off. It’s important that after you’ve put the catalyst in that you seal your catalyst back up. So we’re now going to go over and seal our catalyst before we get started on our next set.
One of the things that we do when we’re done with our catalyst is we seal everything so that we don’t let the catalyst get moist. So, I’ve sealed my catalyst bucket that I’ve got, I’ll get a towel and cover up my scale, to keep it nice and dry. I put this inside here to keep it dry and I cover everything. I don’t want any moisture getting on there. Our next step is to put more methanol in the machine, and we’ll get the batch started.

Compare and contrast an oil refinery and a bucket-based biodiesel processor.?
A bio-diesel refinery is really not a refinery, but basically a bucket processor that uses great big huge buckets. Refiners also typically get their stock as freshly produced vegetable oils. Smaller "bucket" processors may obtain their raw materials from various sources.
A bio-diesel manufacturer may also deal in such a huge volume that they can use a continuous process.
Now, there is also something known a vegetable oil refining. This is the same as oil refining, except that they use vegetable oil along with crude oil. The results are the same petrol-based products we are already familiar with (eg. gasoline, propane, plastics).
I compared a bio-diesel "refinery" to a bucket processor here because they are the most similar, but maybe you are talking about an actual petrol-chemicals refinery?
Refineries are basically great big chemistry labs which perform all sorts of chemical reactions, but on a massive scale. Crude oil is a mixture of many different organic compounds. Mostly long-chain hydrocarbons between 6 and 20 carbon atoms in length. One of the first steps at a refinery is to sort the oil into similar lengths by using what is basically a still. Once the oil is separated into batches of uniform molecular weight, it can undergo further processing. For example, long chains (12+ carbon atoms) might be sent through a hydrogen cracker, which turns the long chains into shorter ones.
The fatty acids that make up plant oils are also hydrocarbon chains of 3 to 21 carbon atoms long; however, they come with extra bits on one end. Bio-diesel processors basically remove these bits, and then cap the chains. They do no sorting, cracking, or other alterations.... although they could. In fact, if bio-diesel was distilled, you could make bio-gasoline out of the shorter chains, and keep the longer chains for bio-diesel and bio-kerosene. This is basically what is done in the afore mentioned vegetable oil refining.
How diesel engines work
Diesel engines are in the news more and more these days becausethey are doing something that surprises many people - some dieselcars are getting better gas mileage than hybrid cars. Scientistsand engineers have been refining diesel engine technology fordecades, and there are several advantages inherent in dieselengines that give them an edge.
