Waxing - a possible cause and solution?

[K.H]

I went back to water washing some time ago, and no I don't recover the meths, I've even removed the squirrel.
I do still have my SHHE and quad core condenser but only use that for dewatering really wet oil before gly washing.

I offset the water used by not washing.

Since changing my process I haven't suffered from any waxing, I'm sure it's there but I just haven't suffered from it.

I waxed my squirrel, then washed it with water. I don't know if it suffered or not.

Easy to tell, if it's Red it probably suffered

If it's grey if suffered over many years.

 I don't water wash, to be honest its a lazy way of producing our fuel.
We need to find alternative energy efficient ways of producing our fuel and that is what our forums are about,aint it

While people water lawns and wash cars, I certainly won't care about washing my bio

While the water companies waste millions of litres each week through leaks, I too won't care about washing my bio with mains water.

Just imagine if our gas distribution system had the same level of leakage.  Do the water companies care ... of course not because they charge us for the water they leak!

Leaking into the the ground or via biodeisel processors is the same thing.we are all responsible,aint we?

I don't see water washing as a lazy way, demeth and settle is far easier, but after seeing the inside of my injection pump I'm conviced water washing is a better way to finish our fuel.

I don't think the thread is going off topic as i believe we need to find a more efficient way of producing our fuel.
O.ne way to do that is to get  together and let go of some of our hard and fast views about water washing
We don't need to water wash,it is a waste of resources,we need to find better and more efficient ways of  producing something ,that in the scheme of things costs us very little.
Try harder. like using koh,why? cos after a while it can be used as  a fertilizer.
Water washing is a waste no matter who the wastrel is

Perhaps then we should all stop making biodiesel, as running on veg is far greener.

We're already reducing the use of the planets resources,
yes I'm sure this can be reduced further,
however with differing feed stock we all need to find a method that works for us.

By lazy I didn't mean a physical thing, I meant a   challenging way of  producing our fuel,thinking about every step we take and saving all we can for the environment ,therefor for our children

Out of interest how many water washers use mains water and are on a water meter ?

I have recently started water washing with mains water (no meter), but have just had a problem inasmuch as we are not on mains drains...........what does soapy water do to a soakaway?
