How do you make biodiesel from oil?

To make biodiesel from any type of oil, the oil must be reacted with an alcohol—usually methanol—in the presence of a catalyst like sodium hydroxide. This transesterification process breaks down the oil’s triglycerides into biodiesel (fatty acid methyl esters) and glycerol. GlobeCore’s USB biodiesel production plant is engineered to manage this process efficiently, ensuring optimal chemical reactions, heat distribution, and separation stages. It’s especially useful for turning waste or refined oils into clean fuel.
