In my case I use it as fuel, so no real need to make it bright yellow, bur I would recomment to store it with silica for longer period of time and it will become bright yellow in week time, so some absorbent will do the trick.
I tried, Polyether Amines TEPA, and it also cleans the fuel. It sequesters the dirt. Getting a thick black goo to the bottom of the container. But it take 2 weeks to do it.
Oxygen can not be used while stirring. It is a strong oxidizing agent that significantly affects the process itself and its result. For chemical mixing, it is necessary to use a rotary mechanism with a frequency converter...
Do you mean that the material should be thrown. and stirring. And this must be isolated from the air. Or the barrel is closed and suspended from the top by a motor with an internal stirrer
very good recipe to make biodiesel. I'll dare suggest you can add to process - using quicklime instead silica gel to dehydrate final stage. In Brazil - before our national alcohol project (for fuel) when high technology were developed, the production of dehydrate Ethylic alcohol was done by quicklime. I believe 100 or 150 g of lime might be enough - try it. Congrats to you
@@daneitor97 Look - I'm not specialist in distillation of alcohol, despite some experience in it. All processes involving dehydration of alcohol are not simple and cheap, mainly for small volumes. I suggest you might try using quicklime - it might absorb rest of hidration of alcohol - totally or partially... you must try to confirm
Hi, I would like to tell you what I do when drying biodiesel. After raising the temperature, I turn on the air for 15 minutes and all the moisture will evaporate quickly.
This whole process seems similar to how biodiese is made from waste cookin oil except normally methanol is used instead of ethanol, and it’s heated before being added to the waste oil
Hi there :) 1. I hope the tank and pipes you are using are not made of aluminum but stainless steel, because aluminum and its alloys will corrode in contact with NaOH. 2) NaOH is a strong base, "rinse" the oil with one liter of water will not remove it, it should be neutralized with some acid imho. 3) I think silica gel absorb water, but with NaOH, so it should not be dried and reused. 4) Dissolving NaOH releases a lot of heat, which may cause the solution to boil and splashing it around. In general that is interesting video. 👍🏻
The tank is stainless steel, the NaOH is in miniscular amount reacted with alcohol releasing the heat, so added to the fuel cold with no exothermic reaction, then it reacts with tar, settles and drained, washed and drained again, copper stripe test or water extract test is done upon the use, the used silica is mixed with NaOH again and boiled with a bit of water that turns it to sodium silicate, then dirt collected from the top of solution, later sodium silicate is converted to silica gel again. Also note that if any NaOH would be in the treated fuel, then silica gel will react with it and become neutral sodium silicate, so there is no alkali in the fuel.
This is great, just discovered your channel. I run only diesel vehicles and collect enough waste oil to power my vehicles even with an 80% recovery rate through distillation. I've been wanting to have a go at cracking it for the longest time. It seems like the addition of a centrifuge could be quite useful at a variety of stages in the cracking and refining processes?
@@santeryi9 have you considered using waste gas or light fractions as the heat source for the still? I imagine that would come with risks, but the reduction of electricity demand seems possibly worthwhile?
@@FirstLast-tx3yj I personally have no use for petrol/gasoline, so that wouldn't rank highly in my priorities. I use a bit of diesel though. I'm yet to attempt any of this. One of these days ill get there.
Dissolving NaOH in EtOH does not make ethoxide. You have merely created a solution of NaOH in alcohol. Ethoxide is a much stronger base than hydroxide.
I believe ethoxide is made by reacting sodium metal with absolute ethanol otherwise if Naoh plus ethanol makes ethoxide,I wouldn't be substituting it with naoh
You should be able to improve your drying result, if you neutralize the remaining NaOH (for example with some muriatic acid) in your solution before adding the silica, as silica does not work well in basic environments.
may I know what results you should get with the hydrometer? Is it required?And also do you know any alternative heating equipment aside from cartridge heater. Is it possible to use stove to hear it?. You are very skilled!👍🏻👍🏻
Hi the hydrometer should show 830 to 845kg per cubic meter, it is a standard requirements, so all the passages and filters are able to establish a proper fuel flow to injectors, the heating can be done with a heated water jacket made around the cylindr, then you can use aa simple water heating element, though make sure that the system is opened to atmosphere, to avoid any steam overpressure.
Has the waste oil distillate shown in the video been produced with the home made still as in earlier videos ? Or is this process a direct treatment of WMO into a clean WMO for blending into a diesel fuel alternative ?
Hi, yes you can reuse silica after reactivation, you will need to bake it in furnace, make it red hot, then cool down, may reuse for a couple of times, then you can turn it to sodium silicate, remove all the impurities and turn it back to clean silica gel. Ther oil at the beginning is cold, otherwise you may risk to turn it to thick soapy substance.
would it be beneficial to do this with raw wmo to get as much yucks out of it (aka..... less to filter/centrifuge cause it fell out via this process) prior to distilling to a diesel fraction?
@@johndowe7003 that is my point.... only centrifuge what is above the settlement. will then take less centrifuge passes to get an oil that is more uniform... thus will crack easier and cleaner as you distill it.
Instead of using air compressor for mixing the ethoxide inside the waste motor oil, can we assemble an electric motor with a propeller shaft for mixing? 220 volt AC horsepower electric motor.
Sodium ethoxide can be prepared in two ways. By reaction of sodium metal in ethanol, or by electrolysis of an anhydrous solution of NaOH in ethanol at high current.
Sir cleaning one's engine oil with silica gel is a bit costly sir do you have any process which can renew the engine oil at low cost would be very helpful sir
It's only costly if you cannot reuse the silica after the process. I wonder if it can be cleaned after its used. Maybe a solvent wash then a drying would make it work again.
So all things considered, necessary supplies and hardware, transportation/storage of fluids, absolutely necessary clean up of contaminates, but most importantly time... it comes to what $10 maybe $15 a gallon of inferior grade fuel?
You probably is getting something other than ethoxide: CH3CH2- as sodium hydroxide in spite of being a strong base is not strong enough to generate ethoxide the reason being that the ethanol is a extremely weak acid, and in order for it to react like one you need brutal bases: metallic sodium (particularly in aprotic solvents like THF) is a good one, I guess you could use Lithium from batteries too. diluted acidic potassium permanganate (say in diluted sulfuric acid) can be also used to oxidize some impurities and you can clarify the colloidal suspension of MnO2 with sodium sulfite afterwards..
Yes it is a long process, take into account that I show how to do it in a bigger volume not in a lab glass. the process can be replicated with a much bigger quantity and it will justify time spent.
Silica is for water and pigment removal, it polishes the fuel, also I am not always use silica, a heat drying and centrifuge filtration, my silica is from a supermarket - cat litter crystals.

@@santeryi9Thank you so much I really appreciate your response. This will help a lot to our school project. We’ll be making a used engine oil to produce a diesel fuel. You really deserve a sub! 👍🏻👍🏻💯
During processing, if I need the fiel to be warm I use a cartrige heater incerted in a stainless tube that plugged at one end, I control the temperture by suppressing the element with a voltage regulator, thus I can keep it at any desired temperature, and yes I make my own diesel fuel and use it for my diesel cars.
Those chemicals are just reagents to remove all the tar and polymers from the fuel, then simple water and neutral absorbent. There is no chemical by the end of the process in fuel, and everything is drained and filtered out.
First of all make sure that your engine oil is not multigrade or mixed with another oils, then you can use some sort of coagulant, let say sodium silicate, mix, let settle, wash, dry, filter or better centrifuge. But from my experience in modern days the only classic cars intended zinc rich motor oil is easy to recover, the other oil, especially diesel one literally impossible, they designed to keep all the dirt suspended to prevent deposits within engine.

Hi, I am thinking about making my own diesel. Could please help me with some information. Where do you get the alcohol for a decent price in new zealand? Any idea for a cheap set up to produce 30-50 liters per week with an acceptable quality? Thanks!
Hi, I am making my alcohol. Otherwise, you can use blue methylated spirits. It is ethyl alcohol (ethanol) with some die. It is usually 5 dollars per liter in any supermarket. It will be enough to treat up to 80L of fuel sodium hydroxide sold in bunnings, currently trying to complete a construction manual about a reliable system.
Diesel fan here..located Australia,access to heaps of waste oil at work (mechanic)..have nearly 1000 litres of used oil stashed away Is there any pdfs or such on how to do this?
Biodizel od biljnog ulja i životinjskih masti obično ne voli niske temperature, vjerovatno dodaju kerozin, tu su i aditivi protiv zaleđivanja za avionska goriva, kao što je etil celosolf (2-etoksietanol)
The benefit of this process is - the vehicle's engine works the same as with the standard diesel fuel, with no smoke, no coked injectors, and no busted fuel pump. Also, there is no need for a double fuel tank system to switch from one fuel to another to flush the pump and injectors before stopping or starting the engine. In other words - one can make regular diesel fuel in a backyard.
Used motor oil contains detergents, zinc compounds like ZDDP, sulfur compounds, soot, suspended metal particulates and air filter bypass dirt. These form ash in a diesel engine. This method is not as good as vacuum distillation and hydrocracking but will greatly reduce ash formation.
@@keithjurena9319 Thanks a lot for your comment. You are right about all those additives and pollutants in the waste oil. Please read the video description, - I am treating already distilled oil. Thus all those sediments and additives are left behind.
It's better to have excess ethanol as it is a fuel on its own. Excess caustic soda, especially if it is unreacted, will cause saponification and create soap in your fuel.
@@santeryi9 Hallow . I am very interested in doing such things like you are doing.I would like to buy your plan for your reactor,how can I transfer the money to your account,please explain me.Thans alot. .
I am adding and mixing water with fuel to dissolve and remove any remaining alkali, also I giving it a time to separate from the fuel and deposit to the bottom of the container.
My man is doing 1800-1900 style chemistry lol! Measuring dry solids by volume, stirring with a stick so the lye solution turns yellow, and eyeballing everything 😂😂 I love it this is how chemistry started
Does anyone know what the specific gravity of the oil was after distillation? 831-833 is ideal. The sulfur content remains, it destroys more modern engines.
I would be brutally honest, when i did this i bought 2 chepest diesel fuel filters for golf 2, 2 plastic barrels and one pump. then added diesel for it to be 50/50 .I cycled 2 times the used oil thru the filters. The OM611 2.2L Mercedes engine run on it just fine without any issue. I drove at least 40 000km on that sort of fuel. I drove always long distances. The W210 rusted to the point where i cant pass inspection so i just bought a cheap w203 1.8 gasoline with lpg and forgot about the used oil thing. LPG makes me feel i am contirbuting to the cleaner air.
Please read the description, - I am cleaning distilled oil, so if you redistill the oil mix, then yes, you can use this method for the distillate cleaning. I plan to do the used oil cleaning experiment soon, and if successful, I will upload and share it.
Expensive, 4-5 days, need a container big enough & stirring device. The outlay for those is high enough but in Europe those chemicals have to be bought in large enough quantities to make it cheap (1Kg NaOH == £4, Alcohol 1L £5). My time alone would make it cheaper to fill up at a gas station. And you still have to dispose of the waste materials which you need to drive to the disposal site in a vehicle. So if you do happen to have the gear lying around and you don't have anything better to do with your time then you get what? 3-4 gallons from 5 gallons of oil. That would take me a few years to get from oil changes anyway.
@@juncusbufonius recovery rate is probably ninety-plus percent fuel here is 490 a gallon so I can make 100 gallons at $0.20 a gallon you do the math machine can run at the house when I'm off of work or on days off or through the night every night of the week and maybe produced 15 gallons per run or 20 over time you will save a fortune
Nice job Alek! I have your plans for a WMO distillation set up. Diesel obviously has a particular odor to it when burnt. WMO when burned, has a less tolerable smell. Does the process in this video change the odor or smell to more like traditional pump purchased Diesel?
Sulfuric acid is one of the most effective means for precipitation, but there are others, I will immediately stipulate that modern complex oils are not susceptible to precipitation, they contain detergent anti-sediment additives that do not allow sediment to fall out in the crankcase, thus many oils and their mixtures (at the service station they are poured into one can) are not susceptible to such manipulations, unless all the oils are collected separately from each other and oil for old-generation gasoline cars with a high zinc content is processed, then it can be precipitated with an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate.

Hi, please read the description - I am treating the distilled oil, not the black one from a sump. Hopefully, soon I will upload the oil cleaning method video.
Yes, you can regenerate it by heating to red hot state burning out all the impurities, also may add some sodium hydroxide and turn it into a liquid form of sodium silicate, dilute with water, filter, boil water out add hydrochloric acid and turn it into silica gel again.
What exactly are you gaining from this process? I've worked with used oil/waste oil for years and all I have ever done is run it through 10-micron filters to get it clean and then blend it with ~20 to 30% E85 to get diesel engines to run normally on it.
the silica is in the crystal state and does not dissolve in the fuel, it deposits at the bottom of the vessel. Also, at the bottom, a fine mesh screen holds the crystals. Plus, fuel is run through the fuel filter before filling the car.
You got yourself a sub, i gotta try this. Been collecting wmo but to use in a conara im going to modify but if i can put it in my landcruiser that'd be great.
Hello, is it possible to get rid of carcinogenic compounds and heavy metals that enter the atmosphere during combustion through such cleaning? Have a good day

@@rayaustria4624No video was available. I'll check my archives to see if there is any explanation about the cone construction. Air was supplied through a cheap gas regulator using a medical-grade oilless compressor, nothing out of the ordinary.
@@santeryi9Thank you so much I really appreciate your response. This will help a lot to our school project. We’ll be making a used engine oil to produce a diesel fuel. You really deserve a sub! 👍🏻👍🏻💯
What did you use for heating the fuel?. Did you produce Disel fuel? Can you use it on vehicles?
During processing, if I need the fiel to be warm I use a cartrige heater incerted in a stainless tube that plugged at one end, I control the temperture by suppressing the element with a voltage regulator, thus I can keep it at any desired temperature, and yes I make my own diesel fuel and use it for my diesel cars.
Hi, can be used this process to clean out some residue of waste oil for LTO burner ?
The oil must be distilled first.
With the addition of several chemicals is thevoul still usabke in the engine?
Those chemicals are just reagents to remove all the tar and polymers from the fuel, then simple water and neutral absorbent. There is no chemical by the end of the process in fuel, and everything is drained and filtered out.
how to make used engine oil clean?
First of all make sure that your engine oil is not multigrade or mixed with another oils, then you can use some sort of coagulant, let say sodium silicate, mix, let settle, wash, dry, filter or better centrifuge. But from my experience in modern days the only classic cars intended zinc rich motor oil is easy to recover, the other oil, especially diesel one literally impossible, they designed to keep all the dirt suspended to prevent deposits within engine.
What do you do with the waste produced?
Still collecting, planning to finish a complete waste processing still, that will reduce it down to solids.
@@santeryi9 Many thanks.

it removes residual color and dehydrates the fuel, keeps it dry.

а как со смазывающим свойством у такого топлива?
сколько стоит инструкция по сборке мининпз?
Топливо делается из масла, по сути это базовое масло ну и смазывающие своиства соответственно как у масла, еще я добавляю немного двухтактного масла. А так использую ка смазку для скользящих частей токарного станка, скользит прекрасно, лучше чем современная сухая соляра.
Цены на новую инструкцию пока нет - инструкция в производстве, старая стоит сто америки.
у меня форсунки заклинили через 100 км после использования самодельной солярки, добавка смазывающей присадки обязательна. двухтактное масло никакого влияния на смазывающую способность не имеет, оно лишь немного повышает цетановое число, на эту тему есть результаты исследований.

Если не очистить как следует и поторопиться то полимеры и смолы осядут в топливной системе, залепят клапана, форсунки, заблокируют насос, и тд. Я об этом говорю в своих видео, во первых после отгона надо отстоять, несмотря на прозрачность, сформируется много осадка, затем химическая очистка или отстой на сисликагеле, после хим очистки опять отстой на абсорбенте. если ест; сомнения то перед употреблением наливаем в чистую стеклянную посуду, даём постоять несколько часов и если на стенках посуды образуется налёт в виде тёмных точек - значит топливо неготово и в нём продолжаются процессы икисления и образования полимеров, они то и блокируют топливную систему. Все эти предосторожноти желательно делать до тех пор пока вы не найдете приемлемый для вас способ очистки топлива, в котором вы будете уверены.
У меня одна машина бообще не видела соляры с заправки около 8ми лет, на самодельной наездил около двухсот тысяч километров, сейчас сын подрос, отдал ему он на ней ездит, намотала машина около 430000км, заводится и не дымит. В соляру как самодельную так и с заправки добавляю еще присадку для топлива моррейс, таким образом решаю возможные недостатки топлива. Всегда обслуживаю машину, меняю фильтры и тд. Но с дуру что попало заливатьне стоит.
What do you do with all that waste you create? Must cost more than the fuel is worth to dispose of it.
It could be burned for heat to distill the next batch
is this suitable to use in a furnace to fire up for hot water boiler to heat house???
Yes, it is suitable for furnace.
Hi, I am thinking about making my own diesel. Could please help me with some information. Where do you get the alcohol for a decent price in new zealand? Any idea for a cheap set up to produce 30-50 liters per week with an acceptable quality?
Thanks!
Hi, I am making my alcohol. Otherwise, you can use blue methylated spirits. It is ethyl alcohol (ethanol) with some die. It is usually 5 dollars per liter in any supermarket. It will be enough to treat up to 80L of fuel sodium hydroxide sold in bunnings, currently trying to complete a construction manual about a reliable system.
Methylated spirits are alcohol. Also try paint shops.
Diesel fan here..located Australia,access to heaps of waste oil at work (mechanic)..have nearly 1000 litres of used oil stashed away
Is there any pdfs or such on how to do this?
And sir can we use motorcycle lubricant waste oil to diesel fuel for use 4 wheeler car please reply
Hi, yes, any hydrocarbon based oil can be processed with distillation and further chemical purification into diesel fuel alternative.
What is the name of this process ? Recycling of cars oil ????
The used oil was distilled prior this procedure, so it is waste oil DISTILLATE ethoxide treatment.
Hi @Alek Polek ,can this be used for petro engine oil?
yes, but distill the oil first.
@@santeryi9 thanks would like to see you doing one video about how to go about it
can tell you are a Kiwi because you eat Anatoth jam. Do you know a recipe for clarifying used motor oil and thickening it to make chainsaw bar oil?
Zasto firme koje proizvode bio dizel tvrde da to nije pravi bio dizel i da njihov bio dizel moz bit do -14 ko i pravi dizel sta jos dodaju
Biodizel od biljnog ulja i životinjskih masti obično ne voli niske temperature, vjerovatno dodaju kerozin, tu su i aditivi protiv zaleđivanja za avionska goriva, kao što je etil celosolf (2-etoksietanol)
What is the benefit of this process as opposed to simply using "black diesel" , a combination of gasoline and finely filtered wmo ?
The benefit of this process is - the vehicle's engine works the same as with the standard diesel fuel, with no smoke, no coked injectors, and no busted fuel pump. Also, there is no need for a double fuel tank system to switch from one fuel to another to flush the pump and injectors before stopping or starting the engine. In other words - one can make regular diesel fuel in a backyard.
Used motor oil contains detergents, zinc compounds like ZDDP, sulfur compounds, soot, suspended metal particulates and air filter bypass dirt. These form ash in a diesel engine.
This method is not as good as vacuum distillation and hydrocracking but will greatly reduce ash formation.
@@keithjurena9319 Thanks a lot for your comment. You are right about all those additives and pollutants in the waste oil. Please read the video description, - I am treating already distilled oil. Thus all those sediments and additives are left behind.
If we use more caustic soda or a little more ethanol, would it destroy the process?
It's better to have excess ethanol as it is a fuel on its own. Excess caustic soda, especially if it is unreacted, will cause saponification and create soap in your fuel.

Hi , i tried to bleach my black diesel,with this recipe, but after 4 days the diesel was still black. Can you explain me what could be the mistake?
Did you distill it first? It was waste oil DISTILLATE.
Yes , it was
Waste oil distillate ,after pyrolyse.but when I put silica gel, I stired it for 30 MN
Now using a funnel and fabrics, with silica to bleach the black diesel
HI THANK YOU CAN I USE THIS METHOD TO CLEAN MY BLACK DIESEL ALSO
No, I am planning to show how to clean the waste oil.
Please explain why we should get into this trouble instead of just using crude diesel oil from the distiller.
To avoid stuck valves and clogged fuel pump.
So…. What does the finished product cost per liter??? I have access tons of waste oil!!
all together is about $5 per 20 liters, while at the gas station it fluctuates between $2.35 per liter to $3.00 per liter.
Question, why do you add the water to the mix only to drain it out 10 hours later, is there a reason for adding and missing in the water?
I am adding and mixing water with fuel to dissolve and remove any remaining alkali, also I giving it a time to separate from the fuel and deposit to the bottom of the container.
Hi, what destination is the cleaned oil for?
Looks to be a tank on a csr
My man is doing 1800-1900 style chemistry lol! Measuring dry solids by volume, stirring with a stick so the lye solution turns yellow, and eyeballing everything 😂😂 I love it this is how chemistry started
Yeah, it's a little rough around the edges, but it works.
Does anyone know what the specific gravity of the oil was after distillation? 831-833 is ideal. The sulfur content remains, it destroys more modern engines.
Does nothing to any engine. Emissions systems...
So what is use of the end product?
I would be brutally honest, when i did this i bought 2 chepest diesel fuel filters for golf 2, 2 plastic barrels and one pump. then added diesel for it to be 50/50 .I cycled 2 times the used oil thru the filters. The OM611 2.2L Mercedes engine run on it just fine without any issue. I drove at least 40 000km on that sort of fuel. I drove always long distances. The W210 rusted to the point where i cant pass inspection so i just bought a cheap w203 1.8 gasoline with lpg and forgot about the used oil thing. LPG makes me feel i am contirbuting to the cleaner air.
Can synthetic oil or oil that has been mixed ie old engine oil / gear oil be used for this process as well
Please read the description, - I am cleaning distilled oil, so if you redistill the oil mix, then yes, you can use this method for the distillate cleaning.
I plan to do the used oil cleaning experiment soon, and if successful, I will upload and share it.

Can I do the same to tyre prolysis crude
You will need to redistill your crude first, then use this method.
I now understand the purpose of it
A very good and clear / easy to understand video, well done . Just wondering how the costs weigh up compared to diesel from the pump.
Maybe .25 cent a gal
Or less
Expensive, 4-5 days, need a container big enough & stirring device. The outlay for those is high enough but in Europe those chemicals have to be bought in large enough quantities to make it cheap (1Kg NaOH == £4, Alcohol 1L £5). My time alone would make it cheaper to fill up at a gas station. And you still have to dispose of the waste materials which you need to drive to the disposal site in a vehicle. So if you do happen to have the gear lying around and you don't have anything better to do with your time then you get what? 3-4 gallons from 5 gallons of oil. That would take me a few years to get from oil changes anyway.
@@juncusbufonius recovery rate is probably ninety-plus percent fuel here is 490 a gallon so I can make 100 gallons at $0.20 a gallon you do the math machine can run at the house when I'm off of work or on days off or through the night every night of the week and maybe produced 15 gallons per run or 20 over time you will save a fortune
@@tonydiesel3444 bro which additive use this in engine oil can u please tell me
Nice job Alek! I have your plans for a WMO distillation set up. Diesel obviously has a particular odor to it when burnt. WMO when burned, has a less tolerable smell. Does the process in this video change the odor or smell to more like traditional pump purchased Diesel?
Yes, removes the odor from the homemade fuel, makes it less prominent than the pump diesel, smells more like a fresh engine oil.

Can the dirty residue be used as heat source
How to clean used engine oil?
Sulfuric acid is one of the most effective means for precipitation, but there are others, I will immediately stipulate that modern complex oils are not susceptible to precipitation, they contain detergent anti-sediment additives that do not allow sediment to fall out in the crankcase, thus many oils and their mixtures (at the service station they are poured into one can) are not susceptible to such manipulations, unless all the oils are collected separately from each other and oil for old-generation gasoline cars with a high zinc content is processed, then it can be precipitated with an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate.
Pretty nice and yes, you could have made Schnaps with the same efforts too.
sure, check my channel, there are plenty of Schnaps videos too.
10-4!
How much did it cost you to do the whole process and versus how long will you be able to use that for whatever purpose you want to?
Yea... plus time
It seems that silica gel is the most expensive item in the mix
Not really, it is sold as cat toilet, like 10 dollars for 7 liter bag, and needed a small portion, say one dollar worth per 30L of fuel.

What do you do with the residual 'waste' products, how do you get rid of them?
alek doesnt use a flame but some people just toss it in the heating chamber or have a dedicated line to vaporize it and toss it back into the burner which once its going good can be so the main burner fuel is turned off and maintained by the offgass or slugdge

so is the WMO just filtered waste engine oil, or has it been distilled by heat?
How can i remove oil from water in waste water and cooling water with Chemicals Treatment..? Can you guide please
How much does ДТ cost in your country? Will this work pay off?
You used the silica gel once, can the silica gel tie be used again or is it only used once?
Yes, you can regenerate it by heating to red hot state burning out all the impurities, also may add some sodium hydroxide and turn it into a liquid form of sodium silicate, dilute with water, filter, boil water out add hydrochloric acid and turn it into silica gel again.
What exactly are you gaining from this process? I've worked with used oil/waste oil for years and all I have ever done is run it through 10-micron filters to get it clean and then blend it with ~20 to 30% E85 to get diesel engines to run normally on it.
Here I am processing pyrolysis oil, removing asphaltenes and tar that otherwise will clog the fuel system. And no need to add any petrol.
Since the beginning of the process, do you heat the oil from the beginning?
First of all, the oil was distilled, then processed cold. Please note that this oil is not directly from a sump. The oil was distilled first.
@@santeryi9can we do it using simple distillation process
Do have a product buying link... where can you buy that stuff
How do you remove the silica gel after removing the water from the engine oil? Is it by filtration??
the silica is in the crystal state and does not dissolve in the fuel, it deposits at the bottom of the vessel. Also, at the bottom, a fine mesh screen holds the crystals. Plus, fuel is run through the fuel filter before filling the car.
