How is Palm Oil Made into Biodiesel?

Palm oil is made into biodiesel through a process called transesterification. The crude or refined palm oil is reacted with methanol and a catalyst (usually sodium hydroxide), resulting in the separation of glycerin and the formation of methyl esters—biodiesel. The GlobeCore USB biodiesel production plant automates this process, offering precise control of mixing, temperature, and separation. It ensures a high conversion rate and consistent biodiesel quality, making palm oil a viable feedstock for renewable fuel production in both small- and large-scale operations.
