Biodiesel Rulez!!! [ARCHIVED]

[aaron drin]

I went to amr yesterday to purchase a box of bioactiv biodiesel, actually 2nd purchase ko na to but I noticed ibang box yung binigay sakin. Went down to fill up my ride but to my surprise when I open the box nakalagay dun sa 1 liter is "not for retail sale". Yung binigay sakin is Bioactiv MC55 ndi yung BD-100. Magkaiba ba sila and should I exchange it for a BD-100? Thanks

NO NEED TO EXCHANGE NA FOR BD100. PERSONALLY, MY INNOVA WORKS WELL ON MC 55. MAS IDEAL ANG HATAK! SA A/T NA D4D G NA INNOVA, I NOTICED PAG FLOOR MO, GRADUALLY ANG PEAK UP NG TACHOMETER. MY BAGUIO TRI REGISTERED 13.7 KM/ LITER! WOW

mc55 and bd100: kailanga siguro sagutin ni rowena ito. MC55 is a type designation being used by chemrez. BD100 means 100% pure biodiesel. Last time I talked to Rowena of AMR she said the local type designation for locally sold BD is different from the ones they are exporting abroad but both are pure BD. With regards to actual difference in fuel specs siguro maganda AMR mag explain.

larshell: yung fuel meister is selling a stand alone BD processing unit. Over 200K lang. Suggestion ko try mo muna sa small quantities coz mura lang naman yung mga gagamitin. Siguro naka 50 liters na ako na na-process.

rsnald: WVO feedstock ko. Kailangan lang i-titrate para sure pero di naman nagkakalayo sa KOH(catalyst) value. Working with 5-7 g/ltr + 7 g/lt base value.

difference between mc55 and bd100 was explained way back here on page 30. Check it out na lang.

Hi All

altec: Actually, your post came out on page 31 :-D

BioActiv in 225ml and 500ml has a cetane rating of around 70 to 71, while BioActiv MC-55 has a cetane rating of around 69.

225ml and 500ml bottles also have a chemical that will prevent the biodiesel from being affected by the extreme cold exprienced during winter time in other countries.

1L bottles and above, labelled BioActiv MC-55, do not have this chemical since it doesn't go below zero in these parts.

Since there is no "anit-freeze" in BioActiv MC-55, it is a bit cheaper than the BioActiv you get in the 225ml and 500ml bottles.

BioActiv in 225ml and 500ml bottles are targetted for export and personal use while BioActiv MC-55 (1L and above) is targetted for stationary, marine, and fleet diesel use.

While the above statement is the general "division" of the products, there is nothing stopping you from using MC-55 in your rig if you choose to do so ;-)

larshell: Yes, you can purchase a FuelMeister for your personal brewing needs. Let me know if you want to pursue this option and I can help you work something out with the local distributor.

garyq: How's it going? Finally moved to the boondocks already? :-D How goes your homebrewing?

hard: ok naman. refining my procedures. hindi naman rocket science so pag may free time ginagawa ko. Pag naka kuha ako ng very cheap na diesel pick up I am inclined to go straight VO para isang gawaan lang.

Hello Guys,

Hardcharger explained very well the difference between MC 55 and BD 100. For now, i am still using MC 55 and see how well it works pa.


Altec,

I just want to share this. For almost one year now, I've been using Biodiesel (BioExceed - 1 liter/fulltank) in my Crosswind. I was getting 14.5-16km/Liter -highway and 13.5 - 14.5 - city driving. Recently, e medyo naubusan ako ng biodiesel sa sobrang kabisihan. Instead and pinalagay ko na lang sa Petron ay yong power booster nila. Sa nakaraang 2 fulltank, napansin ko na bumaba sobra ang mileage ko, halos 10-12 na lang. Saka umingay ang engine. Ano kaya ang nangyayari pag ganito? Babalik na lang ulit ako sa BioDiesel.

Guys, May 21 ang last kong lagay ng biodiesel so mga twice na atang full tank ndi ako nakakalagay then naglagay ako kanina ng 3 liters of biodiesel sabay nagpa gas ako ng 26 liters. I notice yung rpm ko tumaas ng 100, the problem is bagong calibrate pa lang tong ride ko ng saturday. Possible ba na tumaas ang rpm ko sa biodiesel? kaya ko kasi pina-calibrate before ang rpm nya is 1000 then ng pina-calibrate ko na bumaba ng 800 then kanina naging 900 na.
