Making Biodiesel Archives

I recently stumbled on to a site that I could purchase how to make my own biodiesel.

I was skeptical at first but I decided that I really needed to save the money. So after buying the book and trying it, I didn’t see any change in the performance of my car, but I was using less money on diesel.

I’d like to know have any of you actually tried this before? If you haven’t can you please tell me why, because I heard this is a new product on the market and it is really working in my car.

Biodiesel seems to be the way of the future, and I really think you should try it, if you can.

The links to the site which I found a review of the product is: http://biodiesel.reviewfunnel.com/ (For those of you that are interested)

So I guess I would like to know why you aren’t using it, if you have heard of it and why you aren’t trying to get better gas prices?

My husband got an alternative fuel biodiesel car last year which runs on free fuel he makes himself. I was really supportive of this at first but then my car died an now its our only car. I’m 5′ tall and can’t see over the wheel so I use a pillow to see but still the car is just too big for me. It also has an unending list of repair needs. Today I rear-ended another driver because the breaks went out and I couldn’t stop the car in the rain. It was awful!! I know my husband loves the car and is very attached to it but we need to get a different car. How can I talk to him about this? Any advice on broaching a touchy subject with the spouse? We’ve been married less than a year. Thanks!

With the length of beach of 81000 km, Malaysia can become the world’s biggest biodiesel exporter. Malaysia only needs 5% of its beach length with the width of 500 m for algae farming in order to meet the need for transportation biofuel in this country.

I need some suggestions as to some schools to consider. I’d really like to stay out of the midwest (too cold!). I want to do chemical and biological engineering, and I want to go to a school big enough to have a graduate school.

Please help!

Here’s my sitch:

I am a high school senior, concurrently enrolled in college. I have taken summer classes since I was a freshman, getting As and Bs in college and straight As (ok, 2 Bs) in high school. I took classes throughout my junior year, and I’m taking more this year. I had some personal stuff come up that affected my grades- I got 2 Cs (out of 10 classes- the others are a mix of As and Bs), but I have court documentation of the incident that affected things, and a way to explain everything. The incident that really screwed things up gives me a "hardship" to overcome, which is pretty decent for apps.

I’ve done stage crew and lights for 3 years of school plays, and acted in a play entirely in French (I’ve skipped two years of French, done AP French literature, and French club).

I’ve volunteered with the county doing forest restoration since the summer before junior year. I’ve also been the president of a club for the past two years, and secretary beforehand.

I’m currently doing an internship and research project at a lab at the local powerhouse research university (state school, but very well regarded). I will submit an abstract and letter of rec from my prof with my apps. I’m also submitting my project to several science competitions. The project has biofuels applications, which relates to my involvement in environmental volunteer work.

I have a 4.47 GPA at high school, and I don’t really know my college GPA- it isn’t as good, but around a 3.2-.3. My SAT scores are about 2200, and I have a 34 ACT. I’m retaking those tests, and doing my subject tests this fall. I should score a bit better this time around.

I have WONDERFUL teacher recommendations from my history and biology teachers. They love me. The one from my bio teacher will mention how I made biodiesel in my blender for a class project- further emphasis of the environmental thing.

I have a couple ideas for creative essays about how I see science in everyday life, and find inspiration in it. i think I can write a good essay. All my personal essays for LA class have been greatly loved by my teacher and friends.

Please don’t make fun of me. I’m already insecure enough with all these applications, and I don’t think I can take anymore. Some honest advice would be great!

I need some schools to consider!

Points to whomever takes this seriously and gives some good advice.
Do y’all think I could get into MIT.

It’s kind of my dream school…

Hello all,

I’m wondering if I should be applying more to the top schools (like MIT, Stanford, Princeton, Duke), or more like mid range schools (Emory, Purdue, Carnegie Mellon).

I have a list of schools, but I need to choose whether to focus on top or mid range schools. I’ve listed some of my qualifications below. Please tell me what you think!

Oh, I totally qualify for a full ride based on financial aid. As my friend says, "I’m poor as shit." I just go to a good high school.
