Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to a process, method, apparatus and materials for efficient conversion of waste vegetable oils into biofuel that does not use methanol as a reactant or catalyst.
  • Biofuel is a type of fuel made using non-petroleum based oils converted to allow combustion within power plants and engines as a replacement for heavy oils and diesel fuel.
  • Biofuels have desirable burning characteristics and are derived from renewable resources.
  • biofuels may be derived from vegetable oils processed from crops.
  • Vegetable oils are used extensively in food preparation in restaurants, hotels, hospitals and other large institutions.
  • the use of vegetable oils in food preparation generates substantial waste product that must be appropriately disposed of. Processing of these waste • vegetable oils into biofuel thus serves two beneficial purposes, creation of a clean and environmentally friendly fuel source and the elimination of waste disposal requirements .
  • waste vegetable oils are gathered and stored in large drums, for example 55 gallon drums.
  • the waste vegetable oils are allowed to sit for thirty days so that the sediments in the waste oil settle to the bottom of the container.
  • the top clarified oil is removed for processing in a column catalytic reaction chamber while the bottom layer of oil having retained sediments and oil are sent for disposal.
  • This process is inefficient as it requires extensive storage periods and there is still a significant amount of sediment contaminated waste oil that is sent for disposal. It is also a common process in the conversion of vegetable oils, whether virgin or waste oils, to use methanol as a reactant or catalyst.
  • the methanol based processes have as an advantage that the resulting biofuel can be used in engines without being mixed with other fuels.
  • a volume of vegetable oil is mixed with a solution of Methanol and Sodium hydroxide. Approximately 80% of the oil volume becomes fuel, and byproducts are glycerin, fatty acids.
  • NO x Nitrous Oxide
  • the range of increasing in NO x emissions resulting from biodiesel can be anywhere between 1-15% but is generally around 5%.
  • the complete lack of sulfur in biodiesel fuel allows the use of powerful NO x breaking catalysts that had been unusable.
  • the present invention is directed to a process, method, apparatus and materials for efficient conversion of waste vegetable oils into biofuel that does not use methanol as a reactant or catalyst.
  • Engines running on biofuel register a decrease in Nitrous Oxide (NO x ) emissions .

  • the present invention is directed to a process, method, apparatus and materials for efficient conversion of waste vegetable oils into biofuel that does not use methanol as a reactant or catalyst.
  • the resulting biofuel is mixed with kerosene or heavy oil to form a stable diesel fuel grade fuel that is mixable with diesel fuel.
  • the process and apparatus are also applicable to the conversion of virgin vegetable oils and other waste or virgin oils, such as used motor oil, into fuels or fuel additives.
  • the waste oils are mixed with a blend of catalyst and absorption powders in a tank and heated to about 80 degrees centigrade for 40 to 60 minutes.
  • composition is then passed through a filter to remove the added powders, any sediments and certain contaminates in the oil including most carbon solids, as well as certain fatty acids and constituents of the waste oil.
  • the mixing and filtering process clarifies the resulting biofuel and enhances the energy content from 4,000 to 5,000 calories/gram to 9,000 to 10,000 calories/gram.
  • the clarified biofuel resulting from vegetable oils may then be blended with kerosene and filtered through the filter bed containing the removed sediments from the first filtering process or a powder mixture of absorption powders is added to the blended biofuel and kerosene, mixed for 40 to 60 minutes and then filtered.
  • a similar process can be used to recover and generate fuel grade oil from used or waste motor oil, with a resulting product that can be mixed with the biofuel derived from vegetable oils as a replacement for the kerosene additive to produce a light grade or heavy grade fuel oil.
