BIOFUELS - vision for the 21st century
Martin, Slovakia - The main sources of fossil energy (oil, natural gas and coal) are rapidly depleting, and the costs of the energy produced from these resources are continuing to increase. Such a situation has brought more attention to alternative types of fuel, which are produced from the renewable sources of energy.
Liquid biofuels, (bioethanol and methyl esters blends), have been accepted by various industries and customers as alternative fuels for petrol & diesel engines. Liquid biofuels are produced from domestic renewable sources of energy and emit an ecologically friendly profile of combustion gases and are not involved in the increase of greenhouse gases (CO2).
“Liquid Biofuels – their Production, Utilization, Quality Standardization, Legislation and Government Support in Lithuania and the European Union” was the main topic for discussion at an international conference. Rapsoila and MG Baltic in the Crown Plaza Conference Centre, Vilnius, Lithuania organized this event on September 29, 2004.
Speakers at this event presented information on bioethanol and the biodiesel life cycle. They also presented a detailed description of the cold rapeseeds pressing and latest ME technology developments and trends.
The highlight of this event was a series of presentations made by managers of bioethanol and biodiesel production facilities.
At the new Rapsoila plant, methyl esters (ME) are produced from the vegetable oils through a process called transesterification.
Biodiesel, the blend of the fossil diesel fuel and ME, is primarily used for engines. The optimal composition blend for biodiesel fuel is 35% ME and 65% fossil diesel fuel.
Rapsoila claims the ratio of ME may be increased up to 50% to improve the lubrication of the engine when using biodiesel fuel.
Participants of this event had the opportunity to visit the biodiesel plant. Mr. Caplinskas, director of UAB RAPSOILA, and Mr Martin Cvengros, director of BIORAFINERIA SK, j.s.c., presented further technical details on cold pressed oil, press cakes, glycerine and ME production on the site.
