Howdy Folks,
I am hoping that you can help me find out the BTU's in Vegetable oils.
I am investigating using Veg Oil as alternative fuel, and would like to know how they stack up energy wise to Diesel fuel.
The oils that I would like to know about are:
Soybean Oil
Corn Oil
Hemp Oil
Canola Oil
Also, would like to know the Weight of the Oil per Litre (or US Gal).
So I am looking for Information like
# 2 Diesel Fuel has a BTU rating of about 19,000 BTU/lb
# 2 Diesel Fuel weighs about 7 lbs/US Gal
Any help is greatly appreciated.
