Biodiesel fuel
« on: June 11, 2004, 02:29:36 PM »
I heard that you can make Biodiesel with lye, methanol and vegetable oil:

NaOH + CH3OH + Vegetable oil ==> Biodiesel

What is the chemical structure of Biodiesel and what burns differently from regular diesel that makes it have better mileage and is cleaner?
