MACFUGE SEPARATORS FOR BIODIESEL INDUSTRY

MACFUGE the brand of discs centrifuges made by Servizi Industriali has been successfully supporting the production of high-quality biodiesel with its discs centrifuges. Thanks to the cooperation with engineering groups, leaders in the biodiesel making technology, we have developed an high efficiency and high performance portfolio of separators. They are designed and configured specially for the treatment of FAME from vegetable oil, esterified oil, animal fat and used cooked oil and for the final purification into high quality Biodiesel as requested by the more and more stringent rules....

BIODIESEL SEPARATORS The global warming is one of the main and most urgent challenges humanity and life on earth are facing today. The main cause is the enormous amount of greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (C02) released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels. Burning fossil fuels releases more than 6 billion tons of C02 per year, twice as much as the biosphere can absorb. The excess C02 is clogging the atmosphere, so that less solar heat is reflected away, more heat reaches the earth’s surface and global temperatures rise. Using vegetable oils and animal fats as fuel directly from...

BIODIESEL PRODUCTION Biodiesel is a methyl ester from vegetable and/or animal oils. It is a biofuel coming from the trans-esterification reaction, a process where the vegetable oil reacts with the methyl alcohol, in presence of a catalyst. The final product Biodiesel is usually used and commercialized as fuel for road-traction and heating, either mixed with gasoline or not. The by-product obtained is glycerol, commonly known as glycerine, used and sold mainly in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries after being refined. Our MACFUGE DISCS CENTRIFUGES play an important role in the...

SOLID RETAINING MACFUGE 251 Today the biodiesel should face the challenge to be cost effective and to satisfy quality standards, in order to be a realistic alternative to fossil fuel in any condition of use. Thanks to the use of more efficient separators and advanced techniques, it is possible to process even low quality oils (high FFA, recycled oils) to obtain high quality fuel. A critical aspect for the acceptance of the biodiesel as high grade B100, is the matching of total contamination parameters i.e the removal of solid (SG) that may appear during the storage or at colder temperature....

MACFUGE'S AID IN BIODIESEL PRODUCTION MACFUGE CAPITAL CARE . The Macfuge biodiesel separators range is adapted to the demands of biodiesel production. All biodiesel centrifuges are ATEX approved for use in explosion hazardous areas. Standard systems for inert gas blanketing are also available. Ease of installation and maintenance is always a main requirement of MACFUGE designs. Points that make Macfuge different Efficient Transesterification - separation finalized with minimum product loss, along with low energy and utility consumption. High efficiency - less water for washing, less water...
