109455 BioPro 190 Biodiesel Processor, Model# ADBP-190


109455 BioPro 190 Biodiesel Processor, Model# ADBP-190
BioPro Automated Biodiesel Processor is a stainless steel industrial-grade processor that converts organic oils into an alternative fuel — biodiesel — through acid/base catalyzed chemical reactions. The oil is altered to allow it to run efficiently in an unmodified diesel engine. The BioPro 190 is designed for self-contained operation, with very little user interaction: no metering or mixing chemicals. Simply add the required ingredients, press the Big Green Button and walk away. The oil can be any organic oil (tallow, fats, vegetable oil, etc.), but in most cases, waste vegetable oil is commonly used to make biodiesel due to its wide availability. U.S.A.

Customer Comment:
"Product delivered as promised. Set up was very easy. Terrific machine! I've thoroughly researched making BioDiesel, and also made test batches, so I am confident I will be successful with this machine. Looks like it will save loads of time over other Biodiesel processors on the market. A great advantage is that it takes up very little room, plus it is completely enclosed for safety and air quality."
