when using kerosene

[skullbeard]

swims cousin decided to experiment on various plant materiels with traditional kerosene extraction.

the bullfrog has a simple question to ask, as any simple bullfrog would.

when the bullfrog moistened the plant materiel with aqua soda carb.. the bullfrog used a little to much water by accident..

the resulting percolated kerosene had a black layer at the bottom.

all the bullfrog would like to know is what to do with the black layer?
bullfrog assumes it is water, plant oil & soda carb & quite caustic.

should it be shaken up with the kerosene, filtered and then removed from the kerosene?

is there a chance any goodies are in that layer?

Water can contaminate kerosene, You can remove water by pouring it through a chamois cloth, or with the use of a proper filter.

???

that is all.
