Biodiesel From Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (cnsl): A Promising Green Energy Solution

BENGALURU, India - July 30, 2023 - PRLog -- BIODIESEL FROM ACID OIL, A WASTE BY-PRODUCT OF VEGETABLE OIL
REFINERIES: AN ECONOMIC RESOURCE FOR BIODIESEL ACTIVITIES

Combating the menace of Global warming has become a challenging task of present times.
Biofuels development holds promise as they are considered eco-friendly renewable and
widespread. Bioethanol and Biodiesel have been projected as an alternative to Petrol and
Diesel. Feedstock availability and production costs are the key drivers toward sustainable
strong focus on technology development is imperative for the adaptation of second/third
generation of advanced biofuels utilizing domestic feedstocks including agricultural residues/
industrial wastes that otherwise are simply burnt/ thrown out…
Acid oil has been identified as an economic resource as it is readily available in large
quantities at most vegetable oil refineries, about 1060 vegetable oil refineries in India process
about 25 Million Tons of vegetable oils and generates about 4-4.2 Million Tons of acid oil at
their sites which are considered as unwanted and are disposed of at 40-42000 Rs. /ton. As
acid oil contains free fatty acids and moisture contents far excess than permissible limits
conventional trans-esterification process cannot be employed. A new type of ED3R
esterification process developed at the R& D center produces Biodiesel of International
specifications. The process is economically viable, simple, and be easily scaled up as per the
needs.

ED3R process consists of an esterification unit, methanol recovery enrichment, and recycling
unit which are chronologically arranged and operated. Methanol is continuously fed to the
esterification vessel and the methanol-water vapor mixture produced is continuously taken
out.
The mixture is fed to a recovery unit where methanol is enriched recovered recycled and
reused.
At the forefront of this transformative endeavor is GoGreen BioEnergy India Pvt Ltd, the
organization responsible for the pioneering development and implementation of the ED3R
process. Spearheaded by visionary leaders such as BM Kulkarni and Madhu HN, with
Naveen Pawar as the CEO, GoGreen BioEnergy India Pvt Ltd continues to drive innovation
and sustainability in the biofuels industry.
As the world seeks cleaner and greener energy solutions, the utilization of acid oil for
biodiesel production showcases how waste materials can be transformed into valuable
economic resources. By tapping into the potential of acid oil through the ED3R process, India
and the global community take a significant step towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions,
promoting energy security, and fostering a sustainable future. As GoGreen BioEnergy India
Pvt Ltd leads the charge, their commitment to developing green energy solutions, and social
media presence, including Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp Web:
