BIO PRO BIODIESEL PROCESSORS

The automatic solution for converting organic oils to biodiesel. What’s unique about the BioPro™ system is that the majority of this process is done by the machine, in an automated process, with very little user interaction. Instead of having to turn valves, the meter in chemicals, and carefully monitor the machine, you simply pour everything in, press a button and walk away. Capable for biodiesel production from 100 to 400 litres per day.

Producing biodiesel from waste cooking oil. The BioPro™ 190 and The BioPro™ 190EX convert organic oils into an alternative-to-diesel fuel called Biodiesel through a chemical process. The common name for this process is called acid/base catalyzation. This means that the oil is chemically altered to allow it to run in any unmodified diesel engine. What’s unique about the BioPro™ system is that the majority of this process is done by the machine, in an automated process, with very little user interaction. Instead of having to turn valves, the meter in chemicals, and carefully monitor the machine, you simply pour everything in, press a button and walk away. Before starting the process, the user fills the machine with 50 gallons of filtered, dewatered oil. (The machine will also assist in dewatering if necessary). The oil can be any organic oil including tallow, fats, vegetable oil, etc. (The BioPro™ will not convert mineral or motor oils.) Currently, waste vegetable oil collected from kitchens and restaurants is the most commonly used feedstock by BioPro™ owners, however, a vast variety of virgin oils may also be used. After filling the machine with oil, the user then fills the machine with a predetermined amount of catalyst and methanol. The catalyst is easily weighed and placed in the machine. The methanol is then added to the machine. The final step is to measure the proper amount of sulfuric acid. The user then presses “The Big Green Button”, waits for the mixing to start and then pours the sulfuric acid into the machine. Then the user walks away, allowing the machine to do its work. There is no need to monitor the machine. It does the majority of its work all by itself!
