Biodiesel:
Biodiesel is one of the fastest growing alternative
energy sectors in the world. Biodiesel can be used in any diesel
engine, either as B100 biodiesel (100%) or mixed with conventional
diesel. It is composed of either animal fat or vegetable oil,
which then goes through a chemical process in which the heavy
alcohol glycerol is replaced with a light alcohol (methanol or
ethanol), resulting in the production of biodiesel. In conjunction
with our partners, we offer refineries that are as small as 1000
liters per day (250 US gallons), to refineries that can produce
up to 6 million liters (19000 liter per day) plus per year. Our
19000 liter per day refinery is scalable allowing us to build
a refinery to meet any feedstock production needs.
The key to a successful biodiesel operation is
the selection and availability of feedstock. One of the major
problems biodiesel refineries face is being able to source enough
feedstock oil to run their biodiesel refinery at near capacity.
Nereus's solution is twofold: First, we offer different sizes
of biodiesel refineries from our small community based 1000 liter
per day refinery to our 19000 liter per day processors which can
be scale to meet your refining needs. Second, our larger refinery
has an optional pretreatment package which allows biodiesel manufacturers
to process feedstock with acid levels as high as 90%.
NG19000 Biodiesel Refinery:
This quality built biodiesel refinery gives
producer that ability to grow with the market. One of the major
problems in the industry is that a lot of producers have built
over capacity refineries beyond what they can source for feedstock.
The NG19000 is design to be scalable so that more processing lines
can be added as feedstock sources become available. The NG19000
is capable of producing ASTM biodiesel and with its optional free
fatty acid unit it can process very high acid oil such as waste
vegetabel oil. Process unit includes the following equipment (Each
processor processes 800 liters per hour or 19200 liters in a 24
hour period):
Biofilters |
Methanol Recovery Unit |
Preheaters |
Centrifuge |
Biodiesel Reactors |
Ion Resin Biodiesel Wash Unit |
Buffer Tanks |
|
Optional High Free Fatty Acid Unit: (Allows you to process high
free fatty acid oils.)
Preheaters |
Separator |
Mixer |
Dryer |
Reactors |

SSI 250 Biodiesel
Refinery:
This quality built, semi-automatic biodiesel
processor is an excellent processor for individuals, co-ops, small
businesses and independent production for agricultural & transportation
industries. Utilizing the stainless steel construction, the timely
heating capabilities and a dry-wash system allows you to produce
quality biodiesel fuel in as little as 24 hours. This refinery
produces 1000 liters per day.
This Biodiesel unit includes:
Reactor & methoxide
mixing tanks |
Stainless steel piping, tanks
& fixtures |
Ion Resin Dry Wash |
Vapor Proof Control Panel |
Heavy-duty (explosion
proof) pump |
Completely mounted on one
stainless steel skid |
Nereus reserves the right to change manufacturing
and/or processing techniques on any of our biodiesel processors.
This gives Nereus’s customers the confidence that their
machines are being built with the most current and best practices
available and to ensure optimum performance.
