Situation

Analysis: Batch Water-Free Washing Bio-diesel

 

 

Water-free washing bio-diesel applied for the

purification of biodiesel batch(es) is efficacious, though not

necessarily efficient, for just about every biodiesel production

operation. These water-free washing processes always use some form of

washer beads, which may be either Magnesium Silicate, Zeolites,

Ion-exchange resins or blend of Zeolite and Magnesium Silicate. Several

many adoptions of the process have been effected with various attendant

complexities. The mixing of the biodiesel and the powder or

ion-exchange resin subsequently required filtration, though the former

was more intense filtration than the latter. A structured batch

water-free washing biodiesel still available to every operation but

without the filtration process is presented.
