Waste oil Burner.wmv

Oil burner and Foundry
This is the waste oil burner i was working on in the last video
It works on wvo and wmo, it runs on duel fuel LPG to start with the Veg oil,
Veg oil burns so much hotter than LPG, It runs on air from about 3psi to 10 psi the higher the pressure the greater the oil consumption { around 3 Ltrs per hr }
The oil reservior holds 18 Ltrs and is heated with a 2000w haeting element in the bottom , the oil was heated to about 30c , I am thinking of using the burner to pre heat the oil in reservior via tube welded into it
The Compressor was an old LPG cylinder out of a car { I DO NOT RECOMMEND THAT YOU JUST CUT INTO A GAS CYLINDER IN ANY FORM THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGERIOUS}
The furnace is a couple of old kegs cut and filled with heat resistant concrete
Most of the Stuff is made from recycled Stainless steel collected from either the Local Recycle centre or the scrap merchant for a few bucks

do u have a crucible and are u melting what type of metal.?awsome show dude!

[TheMrTinker]

@bcdigit hi yes i have a ceramic crucible for alloy and two others made from stainless steal just for large amounts of metal to poor into ingots

[secularheathen]

@TheMrTinker About how much oil does it consume per hr, say at half and at full throttle?

[TheMrTinker]

@secularheathen hi the nozzle is rated at 1 US gallon per her an i would asume that is full throttle i dont run it that hard, i have not measured how much it uses but it is not alot mat be 1 ltr per hr

[bd86monte]

that is freakin awesome , thnx for sharing .

[TheMrTinker]

@bd86monte ...No worries

[JorgeFloripa]

Heat the oil for which the possibility of a coil in the concrete refretario harnessing the heat generated in the furnace to feed burner hot oil ..



[turtlemann14]

looks like you need a good bit more air.

look into diy jet engines for a good flame tube design

[Erowided1661]

Very cool man I want to make one

[jeenge5050]

What is the LPG regulated to, or is it?

[ASSMYLICK]

@TheMrTinker does it get hot enough to do copper and brass?

[neiallswheel]

seeing as these are hard times , i think you can reduce the amount of oil you are using and instead burn 50/50 ratio oil/water. google patent #2863499. . great work by the way.

I guess a hoover could be stuck in the end of the pipe instead of using compressed air ?. I have not got a compressor, but i have got an old hoover.
