Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of biodiesel production, and more specifically to a methyl ester and glycerol separation device for biodiesel production. Background Art

[0002] Biodiesel is a bio-liquid fuel that is considered to be environmentally friendly and is produced by esterification and transesterification reactions of unprocessed or used vegetable oils and animal fats. Biodiesel refers to fatty acid methyl esters or ethyl esters formed by esterification of vegetable oils, animal oils, waste oils or microbial oils with methanol or ethanol. During the production process of biodiesel, a separation device is required to extract the methyl esters and glycerol inside.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent with the announcement number CN214319158U discloses a device for efficiently separating glycerol soap and methyl ester in the production of biodiesel. The advantage of this structure is that it can quickly separate and collect biodiesel, thereby improving production efficiency and is simple and convenient to use.

Since glycerin has a certain viscosity and will adhere to the inner wall of the separation box and the surface of the heat exhaust pipe, part of the glycerin cannot be completely discharged, which in turn affects the efficiency of glycerin collection.
