Cleaning of
WASTE VEGETABLE OIL
5 Year Warranty The centrifuge alone can not remove glycerin from vegetable oil. Removing glycerin from vegetable oil can only be done by a chemical process. This process is known as "transesterfication" (trans-ester-fication). You must use a pre-mix of methanol and a catalyst such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, measured precisely and blended with the oil for a determined period of time. The reaction that takes place will cause heavy glycerin to settle where it can be drained off. A centrifuge can then be used to remove large portion of the liter free glycerin that still remains suspended in the oil after the "transesterfication" process.
Question: I'm running it from my truck on site. Is there a DC motor solution? Answer) Generally all DC/ 12volt motors are limited to 30 minute duty cycle by the nature of the motor. They get too hot to run. The use of a 115 volt motor with an inverter that will take the output of the vehicle alternator and turn it into 115 volts is recommended. We have been told but not confirmed that some electric motor types have problems starting on inverter power. We have had customers that have built mobile systems but none have given us all the details that we can pass on. I suggest using the Biodiesel info pop at: http://biodiesel.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/159605551/m/2001011761/p/1 Question: Im about to start a Biodiesel operation. I will be filtering 1000 gal of veg oil per month this will most likely grow to 5000 gals per month within the year. Would the OC-50 centrifuge be up to this since it would operate for 9.5 hrs to complete filtration? What product would you suggest for my application? Answer:
The OC-50 is
the best centrifuge for any application that has a small start
up budget but needs the ability to grow in the future. Here are some options. Project how many gallons per day is your goal in one year? By investing today in a pump and motor that can pump that projected number you then can budget and add centrifuges as you grow. Example 1: Buy a pump today that will move 8 Gallons per Minute/ 480 Gallons per Hour. Cost $1125 plus one centrifuge@ $499. Total $1624 You can today run one centrifuge that will process 108 gallons per hour. So in 8 hours and one centrifuge you will be able to clean 288 gallons per day based on three passes through the centrifuge. 288 gallons per day will give you 6300 gallons per month. You then can add as many as four centrifuges as you grow. Price $499 each. With four centrifuges you can clean 432 Gallons per Hour. Based on that 432 GPH you could then in an 8 hour day clean 1100 gallons which translates into 24,200 gallons per month. Example2: Buy one centrifuge @ $499 and one matching pump and motor @$549. Total price $1048 and you then can process the same 288 gallons per day. As you grow you will need to add this same package for each increase of 288 gallons per day you want to process. OC-50 and OC-200 performance, differences and suggestions. The OC-50:
The OC-200:
In both cases the centrifuge will remove water.
The OC-50 produces approximately 25% more centrifugal force than the OC-200.
