Biodiesel is a way for Americans to take control  of how they spend their money on fuel, keeping it in their local economy.

Alternative Fuels are the next step in a grassroots evolution in lifestyle. Using sustainable energy is as revolutionary as the internet has been to communication.

 A Growing Community of biodiesel brewers and sustainable energy enthusiasts are right outside your door.

Power your Car, Truck, Tractor, Generator or any other Diesel Equipment safely and efficiently with a natural alternative to traditional diesel fuel.

"BDL-275-PPSX"

"Description"

Each BDL-275 Packaged Processor System "Patent Pending" Includes 

·         One size #4 carbon steel WVO pre-filter canister with a 400 micron polypropylene felt bag filter.

·         Two 360 gallon cone bottom 10 ga 304L stainless steel reaction vessels, with removable man-way covers for routine maintenance and cleaning of reactors. The reactors are equipped with integral sight gauges for visual indication of tank liquid level. The reactor vessels are insulated with 1/4" high density ceramic fiber insulation and wrapped with a hammered finish aluminum covers. 

·         Two internal 220VAC, 1 Ph 9000 Watt, 1 Ph 316L stainless steel alloy heater assemblys. 

·         One size #4 carbon steel WVO post pretreatment-filter canister with a 200 micron polypropylene felt bag filter.

·         One 290 gallon carbon steel holding/storage tank, equipped with integral sight gauge for visual indication of tank liquid level, the tank is painted with one coat of high particulate primer and two coats of polyurethane enamel paint.

·         Three integrated schedule 10 TIG welded carbon steel dry wash cells, equipped with 150 lb class access flanges for filling the cells and removal of spent media. The cells are sized to have 4 times the capacity of the dry wash media provided with the unit on delivery to allow for normal expansion of the media material over its usable life-span.

·         One size 4 carbon steel final fuel filter canister with a 5 micron polypropylene felt bag filter.

·         One 80 gallon HDPE methyl/oxide mixing tank equipped with a 3/16” 304L stainless steel top with one mounted 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC high speed methyl/oxide prop mixer with stainless steel shaft and two SS 4” 3-blade props.

·         One pneumatic methanol transfer pump.

·         One magnetic drive 110VAC methyl/oxide injection pump.

·         Two 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC mixing pumps.

·         One 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC glycerin removal pump.

·         One 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC glycerin pretreatment pump.

·         One 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC oil transfer pump.

·         One 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC dry wash pump. 

·         One 220VAC, ½ hp, 1 Ph, TEFC fuel transfer pump.

·         One 220VAC, 7200 Watt, 1 Ph SS alloy flash separator/heater assembly.

·         All piping exposed internally to oil or biodiesel is TIG welded carbon steel piping with the exception of valves, access fittings and pumps.

·         All piping exposed internally to methyl/oxide is either FEP, PTFE or TYGON high temperature tubing with the exception of valves, access fittings and pumps.

·         Two solid state low liquid level controllers specifically designed for direct immersion in oil.

·         One optical pump level control switch for the oil transfer cycle.

·         One optical flow safety switch for the methanol recovery flash separator.

·         One optical pump level control switch for the dry wash cycle.

·         One NEMA 4/12 control panel, the control panel features digital temperature controllers with illuminated oil-tight push buttons for each process stage. 

·         All component/device wiring is enclosed in liquid tight flexible conduit with the exception of pump motors designed to use SVO cord.

·         Two spring loaded 1.5 psig vacuum breaker.

·         Two spring loaded 1.5 psig vent valves.

·         All components of the packaged processor system are mounted on a MIG welded heavy duty steel stand consisting of a base constructed from 6CX13 channel on edge with six 1 ½” X ¼” square tubing vertical supports to a top 1 ½”X ¼” frame with lifting lugs capable of supporting 5000 lbs combined weight. The stand is painted with one coat of high particulate primer and two coats of polyurethane enamel paint.

·         The BDL-275 Packaged Processor System  comes pre-charged with 352 lb Amberlyte BD10 Dry wash media to process a minimum of 40,000 gallon of biodiesel before recharging is necessary.  The unit is accompanied with MSDS for the dry wash media.

·         Step-by-step directions for general operation are shipped with the unit.

·         Biodiesel Logic Inc provides full documentation of factory operational testing and also provides two full days of operational training at our factory for the owners operation personell prior to shipping.

Optional cold weather kits can also be installed to help optimize production during the cold winter months for an additional fee of $2,100.00 this option is recommended for all units in the northern half of the continental United States.
