Hi Madog, Welcome to the forum. Wow- $500!!! I could build one for under $20.00- the cost of a 2 micron bag/sock filter. In fact that is what I did last summer, I mixed 1/3 well settled WVO with 2/3 biodiesel, ran it through my 0.5 micron bag filter and used it in my Twin Dragons Rhinoceros. yes to the 50/50 It freezes here in sunny Paradise Queensland. In fact it is forecast to freeze here tonight. | |||

here is another low cost filtration system that was discussed on this forum a while back. It's not as inexpensive as Tilly's, but also well under $500 Cold Upflow Settling The picture calls for a 5 micron filter, but you can put in a two micron filter if you like. If you search on cold upflow filtering, you should get a number of very opinionated threads on the system. Rick | |||

Just experimenting filtering used oil and veg oil etc What do you use as pre-filters to get the big stuff out and get down to the say 15micron range ? Heard of peole using old bed sheets , jeans , even sand :-) | |||

When I worked as a fry cook for Long John Silver's fish & chips in Texas we used a machine specially built to filter about 5 gallons at a time though a paper filter. Magnesol a solid powder was added to the vegetable oil then a pump circulated the oil, filtering out the magnesol and other impurities. Magnesol is magnesium silicate powder made in Dallas, Texas. It removes free fatty acids and other impurities. | |||
