Beautifully done. Good Stockholm Tar is rather a joy to have, and pricey to buy! Love seeing the old skills kept alive!

that's amazing! 15 Litres is a very good yield and will last a long time.

What a great video! Excellent demonstration of a nearly forgotten process, and done in a beautiful location! Thanks!

Very good result! I've seen videos starting with barrels of the same size but only yielding less than 2 liters.
@matsopp5 ай бұрын
Thank you 🙂 The result is very dependent on the quality of the pine wood, i.e. the content of resin in the wood. Pine roots may be rich in resin, but in the old days the pine tree could be cut in a way that it would produce resin-rich wood also in stem and branches. The pine uses resin to protect damaged parts after for example broken branches during storms.

Explanation must have been there. Tar, gas and that oil. Searching a lot for coal tar and wood tar and crude oil derivatives

how did they manage to fit the barrel bottom back over what appears to be the same barrel they cut it from?

They flared the outer one. As seen being adjusted in the video.

Did you end up with a bucket of charcoal after your tar extract ?

Yes

@@booomer180Yes. If you can capture and cool the gas (distillate, like with liquor and spirits), ypu get wood alcohol, a.k.a. methanol. Methanol has many, many, MANY uses, including for heat and power generation, as well as creating bio-diesel.

why did you dump that first stuff?
@matsopp Жыл бұрын
The first stuff was not dumped. The stuff that it look like we "dump" is water to cool the drainage pipe from the tar extraction tank. The collection bucket is still in place while cooling the pipe.

For it to be commercially sold, do you add any other thing to it? Also, do you think I can use this same process for palm kernel shell and get a good result. Finally, what is the wood moisture content required and what temperature do you start getting the wood tar?
@matsopp7 ай бұрын
We did not add anything to the tar we extracted. It was not sold, either. We used it for our own wooden boats in the local coastal culture association. We did not measure wood moisture or temperature, but it is recommended to use well dried wood. I do not know if it can be used with palm kernel shell. I read on the net that biodiesel is extracted from palm kernel. The pine wood we used was rich in a solid state resin, while palm kernel might have a more oily content? The more liquefied content, the higher chance for producing hydrocarbons in gas form when heated? I would be careful.....

does the tar harden after it cools down?
@matsopp Жыл бұрын
It gets a bit thicker, but does not harden. Hardening happens after it is used on wood and has become weathered from sun and wind. That takes weeks in the warm season.
