-How to Pyrolysis-
The video below shows a series of experiments I carried out with the chemical reaction known as pyrolysis. Pyrolysis can be used to break down carbon based materials (wood, grass clippings, manure etc...) into simple compounds. Pyro is Greek for "Fire" while Lysis is Greek for "Separating". To perform pyrolysis the material must be burnt in a zero oxygen enviroment to halt combustion. As the material breaks done it gasifies allowing you to collect these gases. Once collected the gases can be condensed into liquid fuels of different fractions in a process known as 'fractional distillation'. Fractional distillation is the process that fuel for your car is created.

Hi All, hope all is well! First, for some great news. I have finally had the opportunity to add Oxygen to the journals!
Upon opening the Oxygen Journal, you will discover that my articles discuss the many forms of oxygen we can find in our environment. I have also included some links to some video content I have created regarding water desalination using an air still and the sun's power! In the first entry, I attempt to answer that question that keeps us all awake at night! What is water mostly made of? It should have been a simple question with a simple answer, but this was not the case as you will read! I hope you enjoy my new content! Please head on over to my YouTube channels and subscribe! The first is titled Micheal Farmer and the second is simply titled Farmer! The more, the merrier!
