| Division: | International | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Cape Breton | | City: | Sydney, NS | | School: | Riverview High School | | Abstract: | This project sought a method of winterizing biodiesel, a minimally polluting fuel manufactured from organic oils. The method had to be effective and practical for small-scale producers. Test results highlight solvents for the improvement of the cold weather properties of biodiesel and improve the case for use in cool climates. |
