Hey guys,
This is completely impractical, but fascinating none the less. The dude’s chemistry channel on YouTube is fascinating. Stumbled across this after watching some of his other videos.
Once he got to the distillation portion, it’s clear this is where he’s lacking a bit, but still cool to watch. Enjoy!

There's groups on Facebook that have been teaching people how to make shine that's only worth wiping your ass for years.
I dont know.... there's a joke there somewhere.

Is this why the great toilet paper shortage of 2020 was so bad? 
Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.

If anyone figures out how to turn cellulose into alcohol cheaply and efficiently the world will be out of trees in a decade.

Lol I know a bit about chemistry, but this guy is a genius by comparison. When I say lacking in the distillation portion, he’s an expert for other chemical distillations on his channel, it was more commenting on his inclusion of some of the nastier fractions.Saltbush Bill wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 12:08 pmDo you know enough about chemistry to know that hes not "lacking a bit " in that department to.BrewinBrian44 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 11:41 am Once he got to the distillation portion, it’s clear this is where he’s lacking a bit,

As a matter of fact, this video describes just that process. Fortunately, it's much easier make by the hydrolysis of ethylene, a major petrochemical.Dancing4dan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:04 pmLol!
