Rusted out beat down 300d turbo 82' -- RIP
Nice body, tons of ridiculous mechanical issues - 300d turbo 82' /motor 85'

pretty cool, Wish We could just let these bacteria's do their thing in our garage and wake up to a plentiful source of Bio Diesel and just fill up out tank.

I guess they have bacteria to help decompose plastic and all kinds of stuff. So they can make diesel fuels from plastics or from natural cellulose/sugar.
Great
Myb we are like 50 yrs from it becoming commercial and like 100yrs from it moving into a garage and shed at home
I bet there will still be a few 617 about to run the shit too

them bacteria are the wave of the future boy. We can genetically engineer bacteria to do our bidding and they reproduce and love it. Fear the day they become sentient.

In the works: A/W IC, adjust pump, turbo rebuild (w/60 trim comp wheel)
-1980 300SD, 110k, project car. Goal is to get it lookin' like it did on the showroom floor (body and interior wise, not necessarily under the hood )
-1974 240D, FRESH PAINT!!!!!!

06-14-2013, 08:15 PM #6one of my professors at UCSD was part of the S.D. biofuels council or something like that and they are working on developing algae to make fatty acids to use in esterification reactions to make diesel like fuels... Ive been meaning to get back over there as they meet up pretty much every saturday to do cool stuff like that... my goal, once I sell my condo and get my place in the hills is to make a bioreactor to generate enough BD to be self sufficient... he tells me that the technology is there to pretty much support that (maybe 75-80 gals per week) but no where near what is required to be market competitive... they have achieved around 20% efficiency in a test tube style experiment, but as the reaction is scaled up, it loses efficiency really quickly... like only 3-4% sustainable...
