Producing biofuel by thermal cracking, involves volatilizing triglycerides biomass and processing obtained volatilized biomass

NOVELTY – Biofuel production involves volatilizing triglycerides biomass, where the volatilized biomass is processed through thermal cracking process at 500 degrees C for 10-60 seconds. The obtained biomass is processed through condensation or fractionation process. USE – Method for producing biofuel by thermal cracking (claimed). ADVANTAGE – The biofuel production method enables to produce the biofuel with high conversion rate and cetane numbers and high purity by using vertical tubular reactor. DETAILED DESCRIPTION – An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for an equipment for producing biofuel, which comprises a feeding unit, heating unit, reaction unit, processing unit and instrumentation and controlling unit. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) – The drawing shows a flowchart of a pilot plant of thermal cracking of vegetable oil and greasy residue. Power supply section (1) Frequency inverter (2) Tubular reactor (3) Condensation section (4) Fractionating column (5)

Main Application Field

H06 (Gaseous and liquid fuels – including pollution control. Chemical aspects of catalytic exhaust systems for cars are included as well as liquid or gaseous fuels of non-petroleum origin e.g. methanol or ethanol-based fuels. Combustion improvement additives for liquid fuels are included (C10L).); H09 (Fuel products not of petroleum origin – excluding coal handling, preparation or mining, but including coking, briquetting, peat processing synthesis, gas production, coal gasification. Combustion improvement additives for coal, peat and other nonhydrocarbon based fuels are included in this Section together with coal liquefaction and desulphurisation.)
