To make biodiesel from sunflower oil, the oil undergoes transesterification—a chemical reaction between the oil and an alcohol (commonly methanol), catalyzed by a base like sodium hydroxide. This breaks the triglycerides into fatty acid methyl esters (biodiesel) and glycerin. GlobeCore’s USB biodiesel unit simplifies and automates this process, ensuring consistency, quality, and compliance with fuel standards. The system handles the heating, mixing, and separation processes, providing a ready-to-use biofuel.
