Innovations & Benefits
Enhanced Biofuels has developed a breakthrough biodiesel conversion technology, the HS Reactor System™, which addresses all the key operating challenges faced by biodiesel producers using first generation caustic technologies. Specifically, production volume, cost and risk.
The HS Reactor System™ has a unique proprietary reactor design and internals that accelerates the reaction without the use of a caustic or acid based catalyst. This novel approach allows for the cost-effective consolidation of several production functions into a single efficient system, which exhibits the following benefits:
