Knowing that we have a few chemistry types on here, and being of an inquisitive nature, what effect would turpentine, (pure gum turpentine, not the petroleum derived substitute), have upon SVO?

Not sure if this helps Matt, but it might be worth a read.

Originally posted by max6674Ive just had a look at it and watched most of it fly over my head!Nice source of info, but it deals with the biodiesel conversion process more than anything. That part of things I became familiar with a while ago. It's the specific blending possibility and effects of turp and SVO that is the one thing I've never been able to find info on. Blending kerosene/paraffin, petrol, white spirit and god knows what else is covered, but I've never managed to find any info on that specific turp/SVO scenario. Single reason for this one is that it appears to have characteristics of the others with regards to the thinning/blending, but turpentine is a purely natural product, so is bypassing the fossil fuel part of the mix.

Originally posted by max6674No not at all.. but I'm sure someone will come along and correct me..Btw, the bio-power site does have a decent design for a heat exchanger. Just remember that copper is out with SVO. (I think he designed his with copper pipe).

[QUOTE=MattF]You lot are getting me worried now. Do I come across as some type of nerdy horn rimmed glasses geek or something?(Btw, yes, I do actually wear an old pair of round rimmed glasses with the expandable hook over ear pieces, but that is just coincidence).
