Microenergy Development Limited
Biofuel is one of the promising renewable energy alternatives to traditional fossil fuels due to its low air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. Yet the present batch-mode production with conventional acid or alkali-based transesterification conversion technology requires a large production facility and a considerable amount of energy-consuming and costly heating elements.
Microenergy Development has designed a piece of equipment for local fuel producers to utilise a wide range of waste cooking oils with an integrated continuous-flow production process to produce biodiesel in a cost-competitive and environmentally friendly way.
