Hello Todd
I am seriously working on developing a commercial large scale bio
diesel plant and am at the very early stages. at this point I am
sourcing large scale biodiesel systems. I need your help-Is one
system better than amnother? ie. Cost , output, system config etc.
I am lookign for the overall best company that offers a great price
and a good product. I am looking at a minimum output of 5 million
gallons per year. i have sourced two companies so far-continuous
flow batch systems and one company is asking $5 million and the
other is asking $1.5 Million-a huge difference and I am now looking
for help from all members. Recommendations? Can I set up my own
plant of this scale that could meet all government standards for
much less?

These are the best systems, by all accounts:
ENERGEA -- The next generation of biodiesel technology -- CTER
"Continuous Trans Esterification Reactor" technology opens a new
chapter in biodiesel production: up to 50% lower cost of investment,
turn-key modules the size of a container, multi-feed-stock
technology, production capacity 5000 to 100,000 mt/a or more, high
quality fuel according to EN 14214 standard. Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

BioDiesel International of Austria uses re-esterification in its
multi-feedstock production system to handle fresh plant oils and/or
waste cooking oils and/or animal fats and/or animal fats and fatty
acids (as much as 20%), with no loss of free fatty acids, 0% wastes,
0% waste water and no disposal costs, resulting in pure biodiesel
plus glycerine (for use in the chemical and pharmaceutical
industries) plus a solid fertilizer for agricultural use (potassium
phosphate). Yield is 100%: 1 kg of raw material makes 1 kg of
high-quality biodiesel.

All Austrian. Austria has been way out in front with biodiesel for 25
years. Your scheme might be a bit small though. Camillo Holecek of
ENERGEA told me it's not economically viable for plants with capacity
lower than about 20,000 metric tonnes a year, which is about 60
million US gallons. Still, why not ask?
Best wishes
