Our Enzymatic Biodiesel Production Process
Our Enzymatic Biodiesel production process is a fully automated, skid mounted, modular design, continuous production and easily integrated, which lowers manual labor cost. The Enzymatic process and its related technologies promotes better safety in the workplace with the elimination of high temperatures, toxic chemicals, VOC's and pressures required in reactions. Our enzymatic biodiesel technology allows biodiesel producers the ability to use flexible feed stocks to help reduce operational cost and increase production.
Turnkey Enzymatic Biodiesel Production
Your plant to have simple turnkey Enzymatic biodiesel production. This process refers to the Enzymatic Esterification & Transesterification Processes. The byproducts produced are high quality glycerin and water. This enzymatic process can also be used for high FFA material reduction up to 100% with proved results that reduce FFA levels to less than 1 from any level of FFA with an operating temperature of ONLY 85°F. The ethanol requirement is less than 15% by weight for FFA reduction. Cost per gallon of production is right at Go Green bio energy. We have fully automated plants producing spec ASTM & EN biodiesel.
Benefits of Enzyme Catalysts
The benefits of enzyme catalysts in the production of biodiesel have been known however, their adoption on a commercial scale has not been economically feasible due to their sensitivity to methanol and high temperature. Cheaper aqueous methanol or ethanol can be used with the same rate of conversion. The use of aqueous methanol is an added value and allows the process to be cheaper. In the enzymatic process, there is no soap & no caustic formation. Less than tenth of the energy consumed in the chemical process (one kWh per cubic meter) is required in the proposed enzymatic process. The enzyme provides plant flexibility and it allows expanding the feedstock selection to multi-functional plants working with cheaper feed stocks. True economic benefit of enzymes comes in their ability to handle a variety of inexpensive and high FFAs feed stocks such as brown grease, acid oils, used cooking oil, animal fat, etc.
