Why do you say it won't remove suspended water? I have been reading over at the biodiesel site and they seem to think they get "dry" oil using a centrifuge. Also watched some over at youtube.
I haven't paid any attention to veg oil developments for about five years but I was thinking the centrifuge looked like enough fun to get me back into it. I still have a Mercedes.
