Diesel Production By Feedstock

Diesel Making 

By 

Vegetable Oil And Animal Fat

Introduction :

This process is as same as Preparation of Diesel by Fatty Acid or Triglycerides by doing its reaction with Methanol in the presences of Catalyst . 

But to obtained Diesel by from different kind of Feedstock we have to do same as ( Diesel Preparation By Chemical Process  ) but we use Vegetable oil & Animal Fat instead of Fatty Acid ( Triglyceride ) .  

Pictorial Explanation :- 

 Vegetable Oil & Animal Fat ( FEED STOCK ) :-

Oil and Fat which we can used to produce Biodiesel we can obtained them from lots of sources , and these sources are divided in to two major types :

1) First Generation  

2) Second Generation .

  

1) First Generation Feed Stock :-

 First Generation consist of Oils and Sugars from arable crops that are cultivated and mostly used for Food and  Feed Production . This is consist of edible (eat able ) and non edible Oil Plant , Starches and Waste Product such as Cooking Oil and Animal Fat .   

Sources and Name Of The Producer Countries Are Given Bellow In This Table :

2) Second Generation Feed Stock :-

We can also say Advance Bio-fuels to Second Generation of feed Stock  , this is made / consist of Lingo Cellulose Bio Mass , with extra potential Yields , But not cultivated on large scale , Another form / raw for Second Generation is ALGAE ( Advanced Feed Stock ) .  

Some Main Categories Of Second Generation :-

 UGANDA BIO-DIESEL PLANT FORM ( SUNFLOWER ) :-

This Plant consist of :    

                                                                  1 ) Diesel Engine ( 50 - 60 kW)

                                                                  2 ) Grinding Mill .

                                                                  3 ) Distribution Box ( Mini - Grid ). 

                                                                  4 ) Alternator 10 kVA .

                                                                  5 ) Biodiesel Plant .

                                                                  6 ) Oil Expeller .

* Note : This Plant produce 113 Liter of Sunflower Oil on a use of 90 Liter Fuel ( for Generator ) .

** Net Profit :  23 Liter .
