Biodiesel Reactor Overview

We build this 10 cubic meter biodiesel reactor from low alloy steel to handle the thermal and chemical demands of continuous biodiesel production. The standard jacket configuration allows precise temperature control during transesterification, while the direct-coupled motor drive provides reliable agitation for consistent reaction kinetics.

Material & Construction

The vessel is fabricated from low alloy steel plate (typically Q345R or equivalent) with full penetration welds and 100% radiographic testing on all main seams. Inner shell thickness is calculated per ASME VIII Div. 1 for your specific design pressure – we do not use a one-size-fits-all drawing. Internal surfaces are pickled and passivated; optional glass lining or epoxy coating is available for corrosive feedstocks.

Heating & Cooling

The standard jacket is designed for thermal oil or steam up to 250°C. For processes requiring rapid cooling, we can add half-coil or dimple jacket configurations. A separate internal coil (optional) supports additional heat transfer area without increasing vessel footprint.

Agitation & Seals

We supply a top-entry agitator with dual impeller (pitched blade turbine + hydrofoil) driven by a TEFC motor through a helical gearbox. Shaft sealing uses a single mechanical seal for non-hazardous service; double cartridge seals with quench are available for methanol recovery or vacuum operation.

Industry Applications

This reactor is suited for biodiesel producers processing vegetable oils, animal fats, or waste cooking oils. It also works as a esterification vessel, methanolysis reactor, or wash column. We have delivered similar units to plants in the Americas, Southeast Asia, and Africa with batch sizes from 5 to 20 m³.

FAQ

What feedstock can I use? Low alloy steel resists mild acidity (FFA up to 5%). For higher FFA, specify stainless steel or glass lining.

Do you include the condenser? We supply the vessel only, but can provide a design for external reflux condenser piping.

What certification is available? ASME U, PED, CE, and GB150. We also offer third-party inspection (SGS, BV, etc.).

How long is delivery? Typically 10–14 weeks after design approval, depending on customization.
