CX-1 Biodiesel Unit As Best Buy
✖ |
Steven Durfee, Luzerne, Mich.: Steven nominates his CX-1 biodiesel unit as his "best buy" (Alternative Fuel Solutions; ph 706 975-2145; afs@myfastfuel.com; www.myfast fuel.com). It's a complete system that processes veggie oil, used motor oil, transmission fluid, hydraulic fluid, gear oil, crude oil, and any other petroleum-based fluid into a clean fuel product that's compatible with any engine or heating system that operates on diesel fuel. No chemicals or engine modifications are needed; just blend your used oil with some diesel fuel and run it through the unit.
The company recommends starting at a 50-50 mixture - 50 percent used oil and 50 percent diesel fuel - and working your way down. They say most passenger vehicles will run fine on a 70/30 or 80/20 mix with no additional smoke, and heavy equipment can go as low as 95/5.
The system is remote-controlled, allowing the operator constant system control at any distance up to 50 ft.
The CX-1 cleans and decontaminates the oil/fuel mix down to 1 micron and removes any harmful substances such as acids, water, antifreeze, paraffin, metal and other particles, turning the once dirty oil into a clean burning fuel product. Dual-pole polymer filtration pods remove acids found in used petro-based oils, and also remove water, antifreeze, and paraffin.
"I bought this unit last November after seeing an ad in a magazine. It sounded too good to be true but the owners convinced me otherwise and I'm glad they did," says Durfee. "Everything is just as easy to operate as it sounds and the fuel actually runs better than regular diesel fuel. The company provided great support, even calling me at the first of this year to let me know they had a new website. This website has more information than their previous one did and is more helpful. I use the biodiesel in my two Ford Powerstroke pickups and my wife's diesel Mercedes. I also use the fuel in my farm tractors. I make the fuel for 65 cents a gallon and I produce 400 gallons each week. The fuel maker has worked great and the company helps out whenever I need a question answered."
A smaller unit equipped with a 16-gal. poly tank called the Toby is also available. It's said to be ideal for anyone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money and needs to make a few gallons of clean fuel to operate a single vehicle or small tractor. It can produce up to 48 gal. a day. The system is equipped with a 12-volt pump and is small enough to fit in back of your car or pickup. It operates off the vehicle's battery.
Their largest system is a gooseneck trailer-mounted unit that can produce 10,000 gal. of fuel every hour.
