Tracking Biodiesel Profitability | Ag Decision Maker
To track the profitability of biodiesel production, an economic model of a typical Iowabiodiesel plant was created. This is a 30 million gallon facility with construction costs similar to plants built in 2007. The costs and efficiencies are believed to be typical of Iowa biodiesel plants.
biodiesel production for countries without substantial oil wells starts with improved modeling and optimization of the biodiesel process. In the optimization of the biodiesel process, modeling the transesterfication reaction and purification of the biodiesel has been done, but with crude estimations and non-apparent
