Biodiesel Production

{ 1:00 PM, 28/3/2008 } { 1 comments } { Link }
Current biodiesel production capacity in Australia is about 18 million litres per year, however plans for establishment of new facilities or expansion of existing ones will increase this capacity to around 90 million litres per year. For example in Wyong NSW, Australian Biodiesel Consultancy and Collex are currently operating a trial biodiesel plant, using recycled cooking oil and tallow that produces 15 million litres per year. In WA, Australian Renewable Fuels has a plant which produces 40 million litres of biodiesel per year. It uses low grade tallow and used cooking oils as feedstock and will also annually produce 6,000 tonnes of raw glycerine and 1,800 tonnes of sulphate of potash fertiliser in paste form. It is using an improved production technology called a Continuous Trans Esterification Reactor (CTER) that reduces processing time and can reduce plant capital costs by up to 50%.

VegieCars

VegieCars grew organically out of a desire to share information with others that could help them out in some way. Friends and acquaintances were interested in what we were doing and wanted to know more and more.

This began taking up much of our time that our family and house renovating could not afford, which then led to the development of the first edition of the booklet, now in it's third incarnation. The Booklet was developed primarily as a means of freeing up our time from repetitively talking to people many of who we had never met before.
