Biodiesel

The solidifacion of oil or raw materials could cause non-desired production stoppages. The correct operation of fire fighting systems is required.

Electrical Heat-Tracing Systems in Biodiesel Production

Biodiesel is a synthetic liquid biofuel obtained from natural lipids such as vegetable oils or animal fats.

How?

The biodiesel is made by an industrial esterification and transesterification processes. The transesterification process consists of combining normal vegetable oil with a light alcohol, normally methanol.

Why the Biodiesel production needs Electrical Heat-Tracing

The solidifacion of oil or raw materials could cause non-desired production stoppages. The correct operation of fire fighting systems is required.

AKOTRACE® Solution

Electrical Heat-Tracing using parallel type heating cables (Self-regulating and/or Constant Power) commanded by direct temperature control panels.
