We provide the most effective Bio-diesel Consultation

OUR CORE COMPETENCIES

We Design, Fabricate & Commission various capacities of Biodiesel Processing Units. We provide Technical Consultancy of our highly skilled & experienced professionals for our clients who order plants from us.

TECHNICAL AUDIT OF PLANT

A team of expert process and instrument engineers visit process plants and conduct technical audit for process parameters as well as conditions of equipment and instrumentation.Based on technical audit reports, action plans are discussed and necessary measures are taken for improvement.

EXISTING PLANT MODIFICATION

Based on detailed technical audit, process plant modifications are taken up and improved guarantees are proven by Greenshift Biofuels.

The Process of Biodiesel Production

The biodiesel production usually involves 5 steps.

1
FEEDSTOCK PRE-TREATMENT

Most Feedstocks used in Biodiesel production are of low grade and contain impurities that reduce the catalyst efficiency in trans esterification and hence have to be pretreated.

2
TRANS ESTERIFICATION & ACID ESTERIFICATION

This is the main reaction in biodiesel production which involves the conversion of the triglycerides and/or fatty acids into methyl esters. The conversion costs depend on yields, feedstock quality, choice of catalyst (Sodium Methoxide, Sulphuric acid or Enzyme), process routes, energy consumptions, etc.

3
GLYCERINE RECOVERY

The glycerine obtained from biodiesel production must be further purified, concentrated & distilled to get technical grade or pharmaceutical grade of glycerine.

4
METHANOL RECOVERY

The excess methanol from the various streams is recovered to be re-used again for the trans esterification process.

5
BIO-DIESEL PURIFICATION

Biodiesel Purification involves washing of the methyl ester phase and drying. For higher quality of biodiesel, methyl ester distillation may also be necessary.
