    tested it to determine the amount of potassium hydroxide

    Oh shit I read ‘tasted it’ and was like ‘these people are so determined to science they even taste nasty old oil!’

    Great project, thanks for sharing!

        i dont know what you are implying with this, but the whole idea still involves methanol and diesel that are hydrocarbons, and thus still require tankers and refineries to carry oil around and refine it. is it a worthwhile idea ? idk. is it better than lithium mining ? maybe (at least oil is way abundant than lithium). by how much would this reduce carbon emissions ? 90% ? still up for debate.
