That works well in the winter, not so well in the summer ;-)
I suppose if I was going to get into the process whole hog I would
probably build a centrifugal separator and an acid treatment bath. Along
with that a catalytic cracker to refine it back to the base materials.
BUT, Since I'm only cleaning it enough to mix into heating fuel, I doubt
I'll be setting up a refinery anytime soon.Of course if I happen to
strike oil one of these days.....
