The biodiesel plant produces the well known biofuel “biodiesel” and
by – products the Glycerine and the free fatty acids.
At the present stage the Unit produces 132 tn = 150m3 biodiesel per day and 15.2 tn of Glycerine daily with a concentration 85-90% and almost 2 tn of free fatty acids.
The biodiesel product is accordant to the quality specification norm as that is specified by the EN 14214:2003. Glycerine, after the purification proceedings in our installations, is of almost 90% purity and suitable for exportation to pharmaceutical producing units.
The analyses of the mentioned products are as table below.
