Biodiesel Production Unit

Kreido Biofuels biodiesel production unit is a modular biodiesel production system that is made up of four components necessary to take vegetable oils and animal fat feedstock in on one end: the feedstock delivery system, the STT® Reactor, the biodiesel/glycerin separator and polishing system, and the methanol recovery system.

The STT® System provides key technology and advantages in the production process.

Product Specifications

  • ASTM-quality biodiesel in less than one second reactor residence time
  • Anticipated production capacity per commercial biodiesel STT® System is 11 million gallons (36,000 metric tons), per year
  • Simple, waterless, continuous-flow process
  • Operates at low temperature
  • STT® Systems can be combined in parallel for greater production capacities
  • Thin film, high shear reactor system


Advantages over conventional biodiesel production units

  • Faster time to market - less time to build a plant
  • Smaller plant footprint, providing more siting options
  • Lower plant construction costs
  • Lower biodiesel production and plant operational costs
  • Dramatically reduced reactor residence time to less than one second
  • More efficient production technology that uses a lower cost catalyst and less energy
  • Produces negligible soap and requires less downstream processing
  • Simpler and safer biodiesel production process
  • System can better accommodate multiple feedstocks
  • Enables real-time production process monitoring
  • Does not produce waste water
