How to Start Biodiesel Production Business in India?
By Martin Danish on April 16, 2018 0
Biodiesel is a great replacement for conventional diesel which can be eco-friendly and it does not pollute the environment. We can use biodiesel in any diesel-powered machine.
To begin your own Biodiesel production, you require to comprehend the whole production procedure.
Method of Biodiesel Production
There are 5 major approaches through which we can produce biodiesel. Namely,
- Pyrolysis: The pyrolysis refers to a chemical modification triggered by the application of thermal energy in the absence of air or nitrogen. The liquid portions of the thermally decayed vegetable oils are most likely to approach diesel fuels.
- Micro-emulsification: The formation of the microemulsion is among the potential solutions for solving the issue of vegetable oil viscosity. Micro-emulsions are specified as transparent, thermodynamically steady colloidal dispersion.
- Dilution: The dilution of veggie oils can be accomplished with such material as diesel fuels, solvent or ethanol. Dilution leads to the reduction of viscosity and density of veggie oils.
- Transesterification: It is the process of exchanging the organic group R ″ of an ester with the natural group R ′ of an alcohol. These responses are frequently catalyzed by the addition of an acid or base catalyst. The response can also be achieved with the help of enzymes.
- Esterification: When a carboxylic acid is treated with an alcohol and an acid catalyst, an ester is formed (along with whitewater).
Biodiesel Production Business
Advantages of using Biodiesel. Some of the benefits of using biodiesel as a replacement for diesel fuel are [1-4]:.
- Renewable fuel, obtained from vegetable oils or animal fats.
- Low toxicity, in contrast with diesel fuel.
- Degrades more rapidly than diesel fuel, reducing the environmental consequences of biofuel spills.
- Lower emissions of impurities: carbon monoxide, particle matter, polycyclic, aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes. - Lower health threat, due to decreased emissions of carcinogenic compounds.
- No sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions.
- Higher flash point (100C minimum).
- Maybe blended with diesel fuel in any proportion
