1 METHANOL RECOVERY: BASICS, FINE TUNING, AND ENERGY BALANCE ISSUES Dickinson College Biodiesel Shop Carlisle, PA
2 What is methanol recovery? Biodiesel and Glycerin contain surplus methanol Methanol can be driven off via heating and captured for reuse May be done within biodiesel reactor or in standalone units Uses same procedures as making a batch
3 Why do methanol recovery? Removes toxic and flammable methanol from your biodiesel and glycerin Compliance with environmental laws Simplifies safe handling of fuel and byproducts Saves money and resources
4 How recovery works: methanol distillation basics Adding heat turns liquid methanol into methanol vapor (evaporation) Using water condenser cools vapors returning methanol to liquid state (condensation)
5 Plumber s Delight condenser
6 Booster condenser
7 Methanol recovery: how to do it
8 Methanol recovery: how to do it
9 Evaluating the purity of recovered methanol Biodiesel or Glycerin contains water in addition to surplus methanol Boiling point of water is 212 o F (100 o C) During recovery, fuel raised to above 240 o F Water vapors can potentially mix with methanol vapors Dilutes methanol during condensing stage
10 How to test the purity of recovered methanol
11 Running methanol recovery at the Dickinson shop
12 Methanol recovery road blocks Methanol recovery on glycerin Pro: glycerin is 30% methanol and yielded more methanol during recovery Con: increased amount of methanol overwhelmed 4 Plumber s delight condenser and produced greater amounts of wet methanol Alternative methods Booster condenser Re-circulated cooling Reflux column
13 Alternative methods: Booster Condenser
14 Alternative methods: re-circulated cooling
15 Alternative methods: reflux column
16 Basic reflux column design Item Quantity Price Total Price 2" to 3/4" Reducing Coupling " x 30" Black Steel Threaded Pipe Copper Scouring Pad /4" x 3/4" x 1/2" Reducing Tee /4" Nipple /2" MPT Dial Type Temperature Gauge & Well Total Cost:
17 Reflux column expectations Increased methanol purity Allow for successful methanol recovery with 5% pre-wash
18 Reflux column performance: methanol purity
19 Reflux column performance: methanol quantity
20 Reflux column performance: methanol content of glycerin Samples pulled at 240 o F, 250 o F, and 260 o F
21 Methanol Recovery Safety Biodiesel Contains 3-5% methanol Escapes into wash water Glycerol Crude glycerol contains about 25% methanol Classified as hazardous waste- toxic and ignitable Excess glycerol in the shop is a health and fire hazard. Plastic cubies of glycerol will leak with time Avoid stockpiling: have a plan!

23 What is Energy Work is a force applied over a distance. W = F x D Energy enables work. Kinetic Energy Thermal Energy Potential Energy Mechanical Energy Electrical Energy
24 Watts, Joules, and BTUs 1 Joule / second = 1 Watt 3,600 Joules / Hour = 1 Watt 3,600 Joules = 1 Watt Hour 3,600,000 Joules = 1 Kilowatt Hour (kwh) Joules = 1 British Thermal Unit (BTU) BTUs = 1 kwh
25 150 Watts Kilowatts BTUs 2 hours = kwh Cost = 3 cents! 4, Watts Kilowatts 16,695.6 BTUs 2 hours = 9.79 kwh Cost = 99 cents!
