Basics
- A biorefinery specifically desinged to process Biocrude
- Very similar to a petroleum refinery
Used For
- Production of Bio-Fuels
- Production of Bio-Petrochemicals
- Production of other Biocrude Derivateves
Industry Standards
Existing Open Source Designs
- This Video on very small scale lab batch distillation
- Various Lab setups for distillation (even if not specifically for petroleum
- Setups for Alchohol Distillation being adapted
Minimum Viable Product
Lab Scale
- ~1L Capacity of Biocrude in
- Can fit on a lab station
Microfactory/Pilot Plant Scale
- Can fit on Pallets, Skids, or IMCs
Full Scale
Basic Design
Biocrude Tank
- This takes biocrude either from an onsite producer, or from ofsite transport
Catalyst Removal Unit
- This scrubs and recovers any HTL catalysts
Heater
- Used only in continous distillers (NOT batch style ones)
- Preheats the oil to 400° for the (Bio)-Crude-Oil Distillation Unit (or the "(B)CDU")
(B)CDU
- Stands for (Bio)-Crude-Oil Distillation Unit
- Has two variants:
Batch
- Used for small scale due to is's simplicity
- Is essentially what this video lays out
Continous
VDU
- Stands for Vacuum Distillation Unit
- Distills the heaviest fractions without thermally cracking them via lowering the temp needed
Other Units
- These can change various fractions into others and/or refine them further:
