Description

In the Mcgyan® Process can utilize various inexpensive, Non-Food-Grade and Free Fatty Acids (FFAs) containing Feedstocks. The Process can be small in physical size and it utilizes Heterogeneous Catalysts to produce Biodiesel within 4 seconds. The Easy Fatty Acid Removal or EFAR System ensures that no Wastes are produced from the Process. It eliminates Post Production costs such as the Washing and Neutralization Steps. To achieve 100% conversion, it recycles all Unreacted Feedstock and excess Alcohol back into the Reactor. Energy efficiency is also achieved through heat transfer mechanism; in-coming cold Reactants are preheated by the out-going hot Products.
